Upcoming Titles
Planned for 2026:
Villa Fazanka by Bojan Krivokapić
Upon returning from abroad, where she spent almost her entire working and adult life, Ana buys an apartment in Novi Sad, overlooking the Danube and the Army Veterans’ Club. She tries to settle in, but the birds of the past disturb her peace. In the month of August, she goes to the north of the plain, to Villa Fazanka, to look after the house and the dog of her best friend. This marks the beginning of a cluster of stories, encounters, and relationships involving seemingly ordinary, but also very unusual characters. This is a novel about the serene yet expectant plain, from which the voices of former residents disturb the veil of forgetfulness and call out from the past.
Planned for 2026:
Maybe Even Happiness by Ludovic Bruckstein
This will be the forth title from the late Romanian Jewish writer, Ludovic Bruckstein, following on the heels of The Trap (2019), With an Unopened Umbrella in the Pouring Rain (2021) and The Fate of Yaakov Maggid (2023). Bruckstein’s works, novels, stories and plays, deal with the sometimes cruel, sometimes comic, but mostly indifferent fate of simple people whose lives are under the control of highly unpredictable forces. However, in spite of the complications and tragedies, the many disappointments and missed opportunities of his own life, Ludovic Bruckstein looked at the world with humor and optimism, and a great capacity to understand and smile at it.
