Materada
Francesco Koslovic—even his name straddles two cultures. And during the spring of 1955, in the village of Materada on the Istrian Peninsula, his two worlds are coming apart. Materada, the first volume of Fulvio Tomizza's celebrated Istrian Trilogy, depicts the Istrian exodus of the hundreds of thousands who had once thrived in a rich ethnic mixture of Italians and Slavs. Complicating Koslovic's own departure is his attempt to keep the land that he and his brother have worked all their lives. A picture of a disappearing way of life, a tale of feud and displacement, and imbued with the tastes, tales, and songs of his native Istria, Koslovic's story is a testament to the intertwined ethnic roots of Balkan history.

Pirey
The book is famous for its depiction of life around the time of the division of Macedonia, its characterizations, and its use of language and historical setting. While Ion is in the army, Velika struggles as she watches her children and her village ravaged by war. In one famous scene, Ion, conscripted into the Serbian army, and his brother, conscripted into the Bulgarian army, come face-to-face one night on the battlefield. The author, Petre M. Andreevski, was a Macedonian poet, novelist and playwright who won numerous awards for his works, many of which have been translated into other languages. Pirey is his most famous novel and was a best seller in Macedonia. This is the first translation of Pirey into English.

Looking for Lolita: Or Pictures Not Taken
"Looking for Lolita" is a trans modern novel that plays with the notion of (im)possibility of writing a novel in our digital age while telling a compelling life story of its heroine, Lola Dunavska, who is a contemporary take on Mrs. Dalloway. In our heroine's search for the archetype of Lolita in arts and in her own life, historical figures such as Nabokov and Kubrick appear as fictional characters. In the background of this novel written in various voices there is the tragedy of 9/11 intertwined with a story of love and loss. I am a transnational Serbian-American poet and author of 15 books living between New York and Belgrade. I am also a world traveler and a Ph.D. from Princeton University.
