About the book:
Deep in the Banjica[Banyitsa] woods, far from the running tracks, we had our trunk. That is where I had my first cigarette, had my first beer, let Goran [Gorran]for the first time to put his arm under my shirt. There, on that trunk, I said my first “yes” to his invitation to go to his place. Goran’s room seemed not to a part of the to the apartment it was in. The walls were dark gray, the wardrobe, desk and bed were black, and the blinds were lowered. He lit a red candle and only then I saw the writing on the wall saying: “Do what you want and may it be your only law.”On the images beside the writing, there were goat skulls, pentagrams, upside down crosses… I felt some unrest in my stomach, and my inner voice told me: “Get out of here.”But the craving prevented me in that. Insatiable craving for Goran, that completely transformed me in time. I was not a gentle, feeble, vulnerable little girl any more.
