Vrisak book festival in Rijeka

Overview

The 19th edition of the Vrisak book fair and authors' festival has opened in Rijeka, Croatia, featuring over 60 programs at Flacius Square and other city locations. The event aims to highlight significant books from the previous six months that have generated critical acclaim or social debate.

A central highlight of the festival is the participation of Ukrainian writer and intellectual Oksana Zabužko. She is presenting a new Croatian edition of her novel, ‘Field Research in Ukrainian Sexuality’, a work described as a ‘bible of Ukrainian feminism’.

Other festival activities include the presentation of Enver Krivac’s book, ‘Neka jedu kolaže’ (Let Them Eat Collages), which utilizes archival newspaper and magazine headlines to create poetic collages. The opening ceremony also included a tribute to the late Rijeka writer Vedrana Rudan.
