Another wonderful reader dipped into my amazon wish list and picked Hidden Camera by Zoran Zivkovic (no relation).
Zoran was the first person in former Yugoslavia to get a PhD with science-fiction as a topic of his Dissertation. Soon after he was the first one to teach SF at the University of Belgrade. He was also instrumental (together with his colleagues in Croatia and Slovenia) in bringing SF to the region, translating the classics, starting fanzines, etc.
I am looking forward to reading his book now! Thank you!
