    Description:

    Edit is an elderly Zagreb widow who walks her Dalmatian pedigree dog Briska in the park every day. One afternoon, Haris, a Bosnian, also comes by the park with his mixed-breed dog Walter. Initial quarrelling about the dogs and their behaviour leads to open hostility and scuffling, but soon to discussion, which then turns into calm conversation and finally to a kind of understanding for the problems of the other. It's obvious that the life tragedies of the two protagonists are incredibly similar and that they have more in common than they might think. A humorous and at the same time deeply human story.

My books have been published by such publishing houses as Hoffmann und Campe Verlag Hamburg, Konzor Verlag Zagreb and Hollitzer Verlag Vienna. As a linguist, I am the author of works for learning Croatian as a foreign language: CROATIAN MADE EASY - https://www.kroatisch-leicht.com/croatian/ - as well as KROATISCH LEICHT - https://www.kroatisch-leicht.com.
