Milos Crnjanski (1893 Hungary - 1977 Yugoslavia)

Critics took offense at the supposed cynicism in Milos Crnjanski's "Tagebuch über Carnojevic" which was published in 1921. First and foremost, it is a unique linguistic attempt to process the events of WWI. Given its unprecedentedly dreadful images, the tone of this highly poetical text switches from euphoria to resignation and fatalism.
