    Robert Vrbnjak

    Robert Vrbnjak was born on June 30, 1963 in Rijeka (Croatia). He is author of several books of prose and two novels. The characters of his stories are urban individuals which live faced with contemporary frustrations, fears and hopes, and his writing is often imbued with a spirit of existential philosophy, and to some measure, shows resistance to the consumerism and corporate worldview that we are imposed to.

      Five Poems

      If I call myself unlovable, I am, practically; if I say itenough times: unlovable. Then, like practical magic, I’m hollow as old garlic; I’m distance-skinned.I’m a long, mean package, a terror-dyke, a nag, a squinting, slut-spun hag—it’s easy, really
