BIOGRAPHY
Milorad Pavić is a noted
Serbian poet, prose writer, translator, and literary historian.
Born in 1929 in
Belgrade, Pavić has written four novels that
have been translated into English: Dictionary of the Khazars:
A Lexicon Novel, Landscape Painted With Tea, Inner Side Of The Wind, and Last
Love In Constantinople, as well as many short stories not translated to
English.
Pavić's novels are
somewhat unconventional; Dictionary Of The Khazars
takes the form of three encylopedias of the Khazar people, Landscape Painted With Tea mixes the forms
of novel and crossword puzzle, and Inner Side Of The Wind — which tells the
story of Hero and Leander — can be read back to front. Last Love In Constantinople and Dictionary Of The Khazars
both have male and female versions. He has also written one play. There are
more than 80 translations of his writing, into many languages.
