The Auschwitz Café by Dragan Radulović, in the subtitle designated as a dystopia, is in many ways distinct phenomenon of contemporary Montenegrin literature. The action of Radulović’s dystopia takes place in Budva, in the immediate future, where a joint-stock company for production and distribution of agony Scaffold (Montenegrin original – Gubilište) at the Square of the Sentence (the former Square of the Book) is executing the political opponents and those who run afoul of the law, as a lesson to the public. The totalitarian world governed by the close cooperation of politics and corporations of neo-Nazis obsessed with the mission of virus production, with immigrants as guinea pigs, is a dark stage along which there move the protagonists of the novel, burdened with the traumas produced by the “surplus of history” of the Balkans. Paradoxically, both humanistic and alienating dimensions are embodied by the narrator – a crippled dog of ugly looks and gentle nature, Ždero. With a powerful allegorical subtext, Radulović’s novel actually examines the dark consequences of the abuse of power, politics and ideology.
