In addition to big discounts, Laguna's Book Night also attracts visitors to conversations with writers and the presentation of new books. Ante Tomić described his new novel Nada as a story about how people of different religions and nations can get along perfectly
This week, an action was launched to unite the second largest city in Croatia and the second largest city in Serbia, both with the area code 021. In half a day, at the invitation of the initiator of the civic initiative "Drugi grad", about fifty applications arrived from both cities. Ante Tomić and Aleksandar Samardžija were the first to respond
"When you see how, more than thirty years after the breakup of Yugoslavia and despite war, hatred, intolerance and the strict Schengen regime, our cultural space is unique, how we are more connected than ever, who really cares what some morally and intellectually deficient people have to say about it individuals like Vučić and Milanović"
"It hurts me to see what kind of selfish shit we are, unable to empathize with someone else's pain, although our pains are equal, we used to do the same shit to each other. The Croats of Knin, therefore, cry that the ninety-first Serbs drove them from their houses, and rejoice that the ninety-fifth were returned to them in the same measure. They enjoy the misfortune of their Orthodox neighbors, they are glad that some sick old women and crying children escaped on tractor trailers, and four years earlier they were in the same situation. When you listen to them, such cruel, mischievous, devoid of any empathy, Christians who don't even understand the basics of Christian morality - you can't even feel sorry for them"
