You Fly Alone, Blue Bird

By Gordana Savic

In "You Fly Alone, Blue Bird", the book takes readers on a poetic journey through life's choices and how they shape our paths. The author compares life to a big tree with branches, leaves, and choices. Each step we take a decision that leads us to where we are now.

Through self-awareness, we can begin to understand the significance of these choices and how they shape our lives. This thought-provoking and introspective book sets the stage for a captivating read.

This book is much more literary and ambitious by its very concept, because it includes, on the one hand, a part of the story related to Canada, and on the other, an essayistic nuance of the experiences that follow the events of the book and what is, in a certain sense, part of the author's life philosophy.

The second part is in many ways a beautiful and major innovation in the writing of Gordana Savic in general, since it contains short and specific notes, simulated lexicon notations in the margin of the book as designed and deepened life attitudes.

The experience that remains in the shadow determines the nature of the text.

PREFACE

ON THE JOURNEY OF THE BLUE BIRD

Fly Alone, Blue Bird is a natural continuation of the previous book, as it derives from a sentence in Gordana's greeting before embarking on her journey to the white world, where the flying bird encounters the blue. As such, this book is both a deep echo of the first book and a completely new, unexpected creation by the author.

The introductory prose consists of pure stories that are freed from mental generalizations, with the narration being the only focus. It is irresistible in itself and consists of two parts: (1) Life in Canada - Jobs and Days and (2) A Window on a Book - A Window on Life. The second part is a kind of re-examination of the journey taken and an announcement of further, different filtering of attitudes and thought discoveries. The structure of the previous book is not replicated, but its literary essence is incorporated into a new idea that is filtered and differently designed.

This book is much more literary and ambitious in its concept, as it includes, on one hand, part of the story related to Canada and, on the other, an essayistic nuance of the experiences that follow the events of the book and are, in a certain sense, part of the author's life philosophy. This second part is a beautiful and major innovation in Gordana Savic's writing, as it contains short, specific notes and simulated lexicon notations in the margins of the
