One of Slovenia’s foremost columnists, Miha Mazzini is an astute observer of the human condition. However, as is often the case, what makes us human is also what we would prefer to stay hidden, for example – as Miha Mazzini’s short stories make blatantly evident – that greed has become a virtue. These fascinating stories provide a piercing insight into the economy of human relationships in a technicised world, in which nothing is for free and everyone will be the victim of someone else’s greed.
Miha Mazzini (1961) is an award-winning writer and screenwriter, author of more than 30 books, including literary fiction, nonfiction, children’s books, and manuals, translated into 11 languages.
