Truly Divine

Yes, they are The Great Ones, The Magnificent Four, The Angels – the names and descriptions can convey only so much. That’s why you had to be there – Belgrade Arena, March 26th. It was an extraordinary Evening with Il Divo.

I can not find the words to express how I felt that night and how much I enjoyed the concert… So, I’ll just point you in the right direction :)

Belgrade Book Fair

The fair is my “secret” place for finding the books I can’t find anywhere else during the year. Usually, the publishers and bookstore owners bring almost everything they’ve got, including the long forgotten English titles from the murky depths of their cellars. A treasure trove, really :)

Not this year :( Looks like they’ve been very busy printing new books to fill their stands. Not necessarily a bad thing, I agree, but that’s not the point. At least not for me. I understand that the fair is their chance to show off their “latest and greatest” and that’s OK, but newly printed books are very easy to find – every bookstore has them and promotes them before, during and after the fair. I thought the whole point was to allow the visitors to see everything you’ve got…

Or maybe it’s only me not understanding what it’s all about and expecting too much.

We’ll see what happens next year. Until then, I suppose I’ll have to find some other place where the forgotten books go for their final reader hunt.
