Publisher's Synopsis
"In the context of pop culture, popular lyrics, sexual identities, transition in the Balkans, modern technologies, cynicism and irony, This Could Have Been a Simple Story sheds light on the problems of a very specific generation. The protagonist is old enough to remember the war, exile, and poverty, but also young enough to get information about socialism from others while enjoying her sophisticated gadgets and fusion food. She is part of a generation that is trying to make a life for themselves somewhere in between, at a mystic crossing where the roasted piglet and iPhone meet. The unlucky ones who cannot do that are trying to find an answer to the old question should I stay or should I go.-Leda SutloviÔc."--Page 4. of cover.
