It was very fun to discover the presumed source of some of my teenage slang phrases though.
I can see why the book is as praised as it is. Not necessarily something I would generally choose to read for pleasure, though.

for example:
(in the book = serbian = english)
zvook = zvuk = sound
prestoopnik = prestupnik = one who disobeys [laws]
droog = drug = friend
litso = lice = face
rooker = ruka = arm
gulliver = glava = head
goloss = glas = voice
malenky = malo = a little
govoreeting = govoriti = to speak
NOGA = NOGA = LEG
and many many more examples -truly fascinating stuff that was
otherwise what has to be happening in one’s mind to write such a book?
as for content warnings - literally anything you could think of, it’s only 140 pages but my god is it a dark book.
