What a strange and fantastic book. I don't know that I could recommend it to everyone, but if you're up for some psychedelic dark academia that just.... defies description then jump right in to this wild and brilliant ride. Wow. It's not often a book leaves me this confused but immensely satisfied.

Čuješ da su sve pare u školama magije a la Hari Poter i napišeš nešto što se može podvesti pod magične škole ali samo ako si od rodjenja slep, nemaš uopšte glavu (te ni čula), ne živiš na planeti zemlji/u našem univerzumu, ili si prosto „marketinški stručnjak“. Kroz nešto slično su prošli i Grosmanovi Madjioničari (inače, Grosman je bio najveći proponent ovog prevoda), s tim da je ovo stostruko zanimljivije štivo od već odličnog Grosmana. O čemu je onda tačno reč? Vita Nostra može da se smatra i kao filozofski roman, sa velikom potporom u Platonovim idejama, i kao vrsan bildungsroman (adolescentski glas ovoliko ubosti je retkost), i kao Ruska intravenozna doza mazohizma, i kao divna metafora ne-tako-divnog fakultetskog obrazovnog sistema („o bože, u šta sam se ja ovo uvukao“), pa na kraju čak i kao ta čuvena magična škola (sporadično natopljena vodkom). Greota je kvariti o čemu je ovde tačno reč , ali to nešto je maestralno napisano, sa podjednakom dozom sete i lepote, i predstavlja za mene savršenu opomenu kako valja nekad napustiti zapadnu literaturu, jer ona je samo jedan glas, a za nešto više, potrebni su glasovi.
