Ermis Lafazanovski

In small compact and chamber societies in which we gathered sometimes, rarely, but with pleasure, despite my expectations, she used the broad, stately sentences, full of confidence to the interlocutor, delicious, juicy, even delusional, which increased sympathy for her, placing her in the spotlight. When we were just two of us, such sentences were gone! Contrary to my efforts to initiate them, I heard only words that were shorter, more meaningless, and more independent of the essence I wanted to impose.

The novel Sunday Ermis Lafazanovski is a popular and widely read book. With its subtle and cultured recognizable parody, allusion, and above all, with often witty narration with wonderful so called “oral essays” and perfect simplicity, with skillfully caught anxiety of the contemporary life, Sunday is a novel for the forthcoming readers.
