Readers have before them an unusual autobiography. Wrapped in a travelogue set in exotic Azerbaijan and a series of private-public memories, it tells of the love of two Serbian writers whom death could not part.
Smooth, at times scathing, often melancholy, Jasmina Mihajlović’s book On the Shores of the Khazar Sea will give readers a glimpse of Eurovision in Eurasia, explain why in Azerbaijan the Caspian Sea is called the Khazar Sea, and recant the wondrous events that took place on the border between two continents.
The four prose units that make up this book were arranged by Jasmina Mihajlović in keeping with the imaginative, original and unusual literary plays seen in the work of Milorad Pavić, deftly entwining two separate books, her own and Pavić’s, into a harmonious collage and a surprisingly fluid and fresh whole.

This unusual love story includes the short novel TUNISIAN WHITE CAGE IN THE SHAPE OF A PAGODA by Milorad Pavic dedicated by the author to Jasmina Mihajlovic.
