Summary/Abstract: In the stories we publish in this section, Senahid Kahrimanović brings fragments from memory to some striking events and characters from childhood and early youth. Back in the past, the narrator nostalgically remembers childhood in the period of Yugoslavia, at a time marked by the introduction of more modern technologies and conflict with the patriarchal way of life. The focus of storytelling in most stories is the events that happens within the immediate family, representing the narrow perspective of the world and the gradual discovery of the importance of collectivist whose significance becomes greater during the process of development and maturation. The stories follow boy’s growing up, the realization of social phenomena, and the adoption of certain skills important for the survival of boys within the society. Kahrimanović’s story is distinguished by the richness of the language reflected in the use of archaisms, localisms and toponyms characteristic for surroundings of Gračanica.,
