Cloth. Condition: Good to Very Good. Very Good DJ. FIRST Edition Hardcover. 252 pages; ( 470 grams); "As Marko Bahich lay dying on the battlefield, a young girl, Smilya, in search of her father in wartorn Yugoslavia stumbled upon his body. With the help of her dog, she dragged the wounded Partizan on a sled along the deserted mountain path on a journey which took nearly half the night. By the light of a blazing hearth in a shed, she nursed the man. In his delirium, Marko saw the bloody field of battle in the foothills of Zaslon and his half-brother Obren who betrayed him to the enemy. Marko Bahich, a man in his twenties, rushed into the struggle against the fascists but also against the bourgeois society. The war left him seriously injured but even more seriously obsessed with the illusion that communist ideals can be achieved in a direct breakthrough. This illusion was embodied in a girl who saved his life and who became his subconscious symbol of the original revolutionary ideal of his generation. In the course of the novel, Marko endures the vast personal and historical purgatory of the conflict with Stalin. It is during that fateful turning point in 1965 that he experiences a mental hospital, interrogations, wrests, espionage tactics and a Stalinist concentration camp in his own country. Once There Was a Man is an engrossing portrayal of an idealist who is shattered by the tides of upheaval in a socialist regime and spends his life searching in vain for utopia. Vladimir Jovitit is the first Yugoslav author to succeed in condensing the substance of the last forty years in Yugoslavia into the story of a single life. He recounts the frequently tragic fates of persons who experienced the dramas of 1941; of 1948, when a dramatic break with Stalin occurred; and of 1968, which marked the first demonstrations in a socialist country.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Reading the Skies: A Cultural History of English Weather, 1650-1820 by Vladimir Jankovic is a richly interdisciplinary study that explores how weather was understood, interpreted, and culturally embedded in Enlightenment Britain. Jankovic traces the evolution of meteorology from its classical roots, where meteors included all atmospheric phenomena below the moon, to its transformation into a modern science. He examines how weather was not just a physical experience but a moral, political, and religious symbol, deeply woven into everyday life and public discourse.
