Bio: Danilo Peshikan is the author of short stories, which have been published in the literary magazines of his home country and anthologised. A collection of his novellas saw the light of day in the 90’s. Filiad is his first novel chiseled out of most unmalleable, unyielding material, some super hard meteorite metal, and made from it a composition of two figures, as flexible and gracious as if kneaded of some spiritual substance. Filiad shares a similar subject matter with Lolita. It is a story of incestuous obsession, a Sisyphean attempt at love confession that cannot be. An explosive subject matter and explosively treated.

He is an author free of doctrines, writing about a class forgotten and abandoned of our society, about unsolved problems and difficult subject matter. He looks at the moral problems without pressing his view or trying to solve them. He uses a psychological associative beginning and philosophical understandings of the “I” and he looks for an answer of the damn questions of our existence. He impresses in his books not the social characteristics but the human psyche, the most intimate secret recesses of the heart, the maze of the subconsciousness that is under the pressure of the life’s moral degradation.
