Paperback. Condición: Good. As the frequency of air-raid sirens sending an apartment building's residents to the basement increases, the neighbor children block out reality with the toys at hand--some imported from Western Europe and North America, others regional knockoffs or questionably improvised. Masa Kolanovic's Underground Barbie brilliantly captures the vagaries of childhood as innocence gives way to the horrors of the news and the intrigues of sexual curiosity. The idealized glamour of Barbie and Ken on an endless honeymoon morphs into make-believe scenarios that reflect the splintering social structure brought about by the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s: politicians campaigning to define what it means to be a real Croatian, a refugee ball with disgusting dolls that are lesser than genuine Barbie products, the discovery of a mass grave filled with headless corpses thought to be Ken's mistresses. Underground Barbie deftly renders how the power of imagination is used to overcome hardship, alongside a sharp critique of consumer culture, made even more stark against the shredded backdrop of a great socialist experiment.…

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Dubrovnik, das zur touristischen Kulisse erstarrt ist. Konsum, der jede Menschlichkeit ersetzt. Emotionen, die so nicht in der Werbung vorkommen. Der Alltag zwischen Handy-Knebelverträgen, Shopping mall und IKEA-Katalog. MaSa Kolanovic erforscht die Abgründe zwischenmenschlicher Beziehungen in unserer kapitalistischen Gesellschaft. Kunstvoll und mit viel Humor, grotesk und realistisch zugleich - nicht umsonst spielen ihre Insekten-Metaphern auf Kafka an - erzählt sie von der engen Verflechtung von Leben und Tod. Die Protagonist\*innen versuchen ihre Würde zu bewahren, während sie sich durch die Absurdität des Daseins kämpfen und manchmal die Kontrolle verlieren. Zwölf Geschichten, die Spuren hinterlassen - manchmal unheimlich und immer unheimlich gut.…
