About This Book
"Deseti život je ljubavna priča, ali, bez ljubavi. Radnja romana se odvija u Beogradu, uzbudljivom i boemskom "novom Berlinu", jeftinom zabavnom mestu u kome se žurke, seks i droga serviraju uz siromaštvo i očaj, mestu gde se nikada ne dešava ništa, ali je promena svuda. U prostoru između „svetle evropske budućnosti pravila i zasluge", i tmurne surove sadašnjosti u kojoj su tržišni fundamentalizam, investitorski urbanizam i komodifikacija života postali nova igra u gradu, glavni protagonisti romana - zaposlenica u nevladinoj organizaciji koja mrzi svoj posao, i njen preduzetni nešto-kao dečko, plove kroz svakodnevicu pokušavajući da se uhvate za neku vrstu uputstava o životu, iako je, i njima samima, jasno da "niko više nije siguran kako treba živeti". Granica između onoga što percipiraju kao stvarnost i stvarnosti se tanji jer o tome šta je istinito moraju da odluče sami: kada je slika jedina čvrsta, postojana stvar, postmoderno mrvljenje velikih narativa, nesposobnost da se održi bilo kakav stabilan identitet, da se negde pripada ili veruje u nešto, postavlja sopstvo-kao-sliku na mesto u koje su uprte sve oči. Ono što ostaje, negde u pozadani, je ono što se ne može uslikati." --
"Tenth life is a love story, but, without love. The novel's story takes place in Belgrade, the exciting and bohemian "new Berlin", a cheap fun place where parties, sex and drugs are served with poverty and despair, a place where nothing ever happens, yet change is everywhere. The main character is an employee in a non-governmental organization that hates its mission. This character is a youthful man who sails through everyday life, trying to follow some sort of life instructions, although it is clear to them, too, that "no one else is sure how to live". The boundary between what they perceive as reality and reality is thin because the characters must decide for themselves what is true ... inability to maintain any stable identity..." --
