My cat yugoslavia by pajtim statovci6/7/2023 The story focuses on two time periods separated by only a few decades. I don’t say that out of bitter jealousy, but because the book I read blew me away by how unspecial and uninteresting it was: treading ground superior writers have done before, and with less skill and narrative flair. The first book I am referring too was Raphael Montes weak thriller Perfect Days, and this book, My Cat Yugoslavia by Pajtim Statovci might be worse than that. It is a fact that doesn’t bother me so much as it would have when I was younger, but of the two books I have read by authors younger than I am, neither have been what I’d call great (but both are writers outside of the United States, whose works have been translated and were born in 1990). I am at that age where it is not so hard to find published books by writers who are younger than I am.
