The coming

The coming begins like a classic detective novel but only then the author turns everything on top of his head. We are walking in a small town, somewhere in the south, on the Adriatic coast. The protagonist of the novel, and at the same time one of his narrators, is a private investigator with whom, as the reader readily admits, he often happens to sacrifice truth for the sake of stories that his clients actually want to hear. Now he should wrap the threads of a cruel multiple murder. As he walks the streets of the city in the heat of June, the snow begins to fall unexpectedly, and soon alarming signs are coming from other parts of the world. Meanwhile, from a distance, a mysterious young man will also be part of the investigation, from whose letters a mysterious strand of European history emerges, centered on the re-coming of the Messiah and a mysterious volume, The Book of Return. The unsolved mysteries of the past and present on one side and a series of natural disasters on the other seem to point in the same direction: near the apocalypse "The coming is a particularly explosive mixture that operates on three levels: images of the impending natural disaster, and finally a vivid description of the everyday life of a small town in the Balkans. an insanely readable book will still be a huge success due to some divine whim.
