Field notes
The page borrows the apparatus of a literary institution: bilingual section labels, a publisher name, a place-and-date line, and catalog-style identifiers. Its invented biography ranges from early Bosnian lyric poetry to a supposedly “drunken non-dualism” in Belgrade. The photo section adds another layer to the fiction, describing restored images while acknowledging that the meetings they depict never took place.
