Kotor

Summary/Abstract: This text fluctuates between the genres of Travel Literature, "Physiological Story", Anthropological Analysis, Satire and Parody, Publicistic Feature. The main focus of the "action" is Kotor's bay - the so-called Boka Kotorska, where The Nobel laureate Ivo Andric spent the three happiest years of his life with Milica Babic. The author Igov had the fortune to know Andric and is the author of the only literary interview in Bulgarian with the great Balkan writer. This text reflects on the purpose and philosophical depths of literature, but also on the meaning of creative and human existence in general. The satirization and the philosophical understanding of the concept of "conference tourism" (the journey as knowledge and narrative) and the scientific benefits from it falls completely within the optics of the topic of memory and literary cities. That is, the cities that inspire literature. The text reflects on the architecture of the cities as linear and radial projections (under Leroa Guran), in which the story moves. The idea of literary tourism, which supposedly reconstructs authors, works and memory, is being explored.
