For the last six years, the playwright and novelist Borivoj Radakovic has invited leading writers from the UK to Croatia, and more recently to Serbia, to perform to huge festival audiences alongside the very best authors from the countries that make up the former Yugoslavia. The Festival of Alternative Culture, FAK, is legendary in Croatia and Croatian Nights celebrates the networks it has created. Containing 18 new short stories set in Croatia, this anthology features nine UK authors and nine writers from the former Yugoslavia, most of whom appear in English translation for the first time.
Croatian Nights has been organized by Serpent’s Tail and is funded by Arts Council England. Serpent’s Tail is an independent publishing house committed to publishing outlaw voices neglected by the mainstream, which includes fiction in translation.
