Goran Simic Bücher
Goran Simić ist eine herausragende Stimme des ehemaligen Jugoslawiens, dessen Werk tief in den Erfahrungen von Vertreibung und der Suche nach Identität verwurzelt ist. Nach seiner Gefangenschaft während der Belagerung von Sarajevo, bevor er Zuflucht in Kanada fand, bietet sein Schreiben eine tiefgründige Auseinandersetzung mit dem Exil. Simićs Prosa zeichnet sich durch ihre scharfe Beobachtung des menschlichen Zustands aus, insbesondere durch die Linse der Einwanderererfahrung. Er befasst sich mit der Komplexität des Verlusts der Heimat und der Suche nach einem neuen Ort auf der Welt, wobei er eindringliche Bilder und tiefe emotionale Tiefe einsetzt.
