Objestnost is a novel by Slovenian author Jurij Hudolin. It was first published in 2005.[1][2]

Plot

This novel, Hudolin's first, is a semi-autobiographical work that serves as a "chronicle of a long time." The story follows Svit Jagodnik, a young poet who embodies the rebellious bohemian lifestyle of the streets and nightclubs. His days are marked by recklessness and arrogance, and his nights by indulgence. The character is described as a "loser who has nothing to lose," a "lonely media tiger," and an "insatiable womanizer." Though he experiences love, it cannot save him from his self-destructive behavior. Jagodnik is likened to literary and musical figures like Charles Bukowski and Jim Morrison.[2]

Reception

The novel was received as a provocative debut by a poet and journalist, and it expands upon Hudolin's recognizable poetic style. The work is noted for giving a fitting and precise expression to a sense of recklessness.[2]
