Milan Kleč / Sončni zahod

Photography by Boris Gaberščik

In the introduction to his new collection, Milan Kleč explains: "It feels good, even though I copied the title. To repeat, all the titles of the stories are by Boris Gaberščik, the master. It's incredible that I trembled as soon as I wrote it down, by which I mean the following. It's as if I'm realising why I've been avoiding writing in recent years. Simply because of this trembling. To be honest, it always got on my nerves, because who am I to sigh and get excited and at the same time feel like I'm embracing the whole world. It's a pleasant feeling, no doubt, when everything is at your fingertips, when you tremble, when you are overcome with enthusiasm, when you are simply fine. The way every moment should be."
