Book excerpt: The annual "Author of the Year" award, presented each year by the Tuzla publishing house "Bosnian Word", was this year awarded to writer Sead Mahmutefendic for his novels The Man Who Spits on his Grave and the Place Someone Eaten a Flower. According to some literary critics, Mahmutefendic is one of the most controversial Bosnian writers at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. Of the 13 novels published so far, international references have been acquired by the novels Kelvin's Zero, The Skeep of Salka Piria, Pisces and the One-eyed Jack, Demons and more, and Draz and the Horror of Lies were also nominated for the 2016 IMPAC Dublin Award. The novels for which he was awarded the Author of the Year award, as explained by the editors of the Bosnian word publishing house, are poetically situated between the conventional streams of fantastic literature, where they are close to grotesque and apocalyptic prose, and to the genre orientation by whose standards this the writer allegorically develops "reality" instead of reality.
