A review by meghan_is_reading
The Cyclist Conspiracy by Svetislav Basara

I'm not sure what I think yet, I hunger for someone either a) familiar with Serbian culture or Serbian lit or just this guy's overall work to read and discuss this with me! I could look for Serbian reviews/criticism, but I'm afraid the google translate problem will interfere with my understanding. Anyway! The Cyclist Conspiracy is basically an absurdist take of secret societies and the ills of the human condition using a collection of fake literature - imagine you found a box in someone's personal papers that are just collected around the common reoccurring spector of the evangelical bicyclists. Fun at first, but I got a little exhausted at all the casual misogyny, I would have dropped it if it wasn't for the fact it is my bookclub pick.
