Zagreb, Exit South
"Take a ride through the fog that is the new Zagreb and meet the people who struggle to make sense of themselves and their city. Be guided by the sound of a musical lighter as Baba wanders the streets in search of his beloved domestic beer and an excuse not to go home. Vera states at her computer screen, finding that email is cheaper than therapy, that the past should stay in the past, and that radical ex-boyfriends get old, too. Baba, Vera, and their friends and enemies (sometimes one and the same) discover that sex, drugs, alcohol, and conversation may not be the keys to salvation, but they can be essential survival gear in a country redefining itself."--BOOK JACKET.
Zagreb
Situated at the foot of a range of hills on the edge of the great Pannonian Plain, for most of its history Zagreb has been a small town to which things happened. Administered from 1102 by Hungary and later absorbed into the Habsburg Monarchy, Zagreb was under threat from the advancing Ottomans until the late sixteenth century. From the mid-nineteenth century onwards Zagreb developed steadily into a modern city, reflecting all the important trends in Central European culture, architecture and fashion. Its pretty centre is laid out according to a plan incorporating trees and public gardens, forming a "green horseshoe" lined with imposing buildings. Celia Hawkesworth explores this central core and the atmospheric old town on a rise above it, finding a mix of old and modern building, a rich cultural tradition and a vibrant outdoor cafe life, in which many of the individuals who have contributed to creating the city's unique inner life are commemorated in statues in the streets and squares.
