44K0

"Children on the Sun Boat" is a collection of travel essays by Yasmina, which calmly and humorously records her experiences and feelings while traveling in Venice, Moscow, Egypt and other places. When faced with the collision of different cultures during his journey, this traveler from the Balkans not only made bold and pungent jokes, but also spared no effort in praising them. The work is full of amazing details: the gondola on the Bridge of Sighs, the lattice box in Kotor, the Russian girl in the Sheraton Hotel, the endless flow of streets in Cairo... These "close-up" fragments, these cities with profound history, appear on the page with a vivid and full image.

"Paris Kiss" is a novel written by Yasmina based on her life and travel in Paris with her writer husband Milorad Pavich. It tells the story of a four-day trip to Paris between the heroine of the same name as the author and her husband M. The hysterical heroine wanders around the sprawling metropolis, sarcastic about the weirdness of the digital age around her. She was deeply aware that she was at a loss in this era, and she was enveloped in deep anxiety and fear. Because she is in the "bad" city of Paris, she will encounter history, art, and the future, and gain inspiration: the House of Flamel, the Obelisk of the Place de la Concorde, the "Mona Lisa" in the Louvre, the "Lady and the Unicorn" in the Cluny Museum, the New Arc de Triomphe... For her, this trip is a kiss in Paris.
