In a weakened physical and questionable mental state, the protagonist, through a day and night, is confronted with the immoral and shameful behavior of individuals who she says are produced on various social pillars and are a direct threat to the survival of man as a rational being. The novel is a critique of modern society, a party and a powerful voice in the longing for honesty, truthfulness and justice. The action is original to the real events that take place in August 2023 and the events of the last decade in the city.<br><br><strong>No. of pp<\/strong>: 97<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rights: <\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>ILI-ILI publishing house<br><a href=\"mailto:iliili@mail.com\">iliili@mail.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In her novels, Mladenovska Angjelkov explores the memories whose power of transformation determines the present, skillfully mixing urbanophilia, polyphonic chronicles, archives of nostalgia, documentary prose, the silent family history&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":23593,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[212,206],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23592","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-authors","category-fiction"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23592"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23592\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23878,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23592\/revisions\/23878"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23592"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mai.org.mk\/macedonian-literature\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
