“Polyphony of life” on writer’s strive towards unusual
Our guest for this expose is a young and talented writer Dusan Pejakovic, who is increasingly conquering the narrowly built upper echelons of quality literary expression realm. It is our great pleasure to guide you through life and work of this up-and-coming writer.
Dusan Pejakovic is a young and award-winning writer, residing in Podgorica, Montenegro. Master’s student of the Faculty of Political Sciences, University of Montenegro, volunteer, social entrepreneur and book author. In addition to the languages of the Balkan’s language area, he also creates in English, Italian and Spanish. Published so far in numerous anthologies of poetry and prose around the world. Multiple participations in literary competitions and festivals have yielded a large number of accompanying diplomas, awards, certificates and accolades for this young, independent author. Through the written word he has spread the voice of his undisputed creativity, yet also left a lasting mark of his homeland and its culture throughout the globe: starting from South America, through Europe all the way to Asia and India. Accordingly, he was honored by several international associations, and was proclaimed as a global promoter of literature and ambassador of culture, and was awarded many memberships and adequate representative roles in these organizations.
The viral-gruesome and tiresome year of 2020 has been extremely successful for this author. He published two books “Unrest of lucidity” (Amazon, 2020) and “Silhouette of an unfulfilled dream” (Obodsko slovo, 2020), in just a few months apart. Moreover, these two manuscripts brought him a handful of awards and accolades both on the domestic scene in his homeland and international literary scene as well.
The 2021 starts on a similar note, whilst he purposefully and tirelessly continues his authorship saga and in the result — the third book of this author has sprung up to life, just a few days ago, so called — “Polyphony of life”.
Namely, it is a work of unambiguous authenticity and something hitherto unseen not only in the region from which it originates, but also in a much broader sense: it is a trilingual collection of poetry. Representing a definite paradigm-shift of literary expression, three individual cycles embodied in this work consists of three mature wholes, originally written in three different languages: English, Italian, and Spanish. In the end they form one exceptionally coherent literary work, both aesthetically and thematically pleasing. The themes are lively, vibrating, awe-striking and, as the author himself says — immanently close to everyone.
The author adds, among other things, how he hopes that in accordance with such topics and multilingualism itself — this book will be highly sought after and respected by the population of readers. Moreover, how many times can you find a work like this that is made in parallel in 3 different linguistic statements? Its uniqueness should count for itself, isn’t it? Let alone, its obvious cachet.
The book will be available in two formats, as an e-book, as well as paperback via the “print on demand” (available link: https://www.amazon.com/Polyphony-life-Multilingual-poetry-collection-ebook/dp /B08WTWYZSH/) on Amazon, but also through a wide range of affiliated distributors such as: Goodreads, Book Depository, AbeBooks, Google Books, etc.
In addition to poetry and prose, Pejakovic also writes essays and analytical texts in the field of his own profession. He is currently working on a collection of short stories, a new project that has been practically completed; and adds that all this is now in the most demanding stage — the inevitable phase of finding possible sponsorships and / or an adequate publishing / printing arrangement. Additionally, he told us a few words about his future endeavors, and let us in in a little secret: he plans for a whole new science fiction series on Amazon, in not so distant future.
We better keep an eye on this young talent, we are quite certain that he’s yet to bring his best.
