Mouth Full Of Earth by Branimir Scepanovic
This novel delves into the psychological and existential journey of a man who, while on a hunting trip, becomes the prey after being mistaken for an enemy. As he flees from his relentless pursuers through a desolate landscape, he is forced to confront the primal instincts of survival, the absurdity of his situation, and the nature of violence and death. The narrative explores the thin line between civilization and savagery, and the protagonist's struggle becomes a metaphor for the human condition and the inherent conflicts within society.
