Gorica Nešović and Jelica Greganović have been friends for over four decades. Death physically interrupted this female friendship, but it can never die.
Evidence of this is the fact that tomorrow the book „Our Stories“ will be published, which is a continuation of „Never-Ending Stories“ by authors Jelica Greganović and Gorica Nešović.
Greganović recalled that they published the book „Never-Ending Stories“ for their own souls or, as Nešović said, „instead of a scrapbook,“ and were amazed when the book had numerous reprints and two new, expanded editions.
Because of other life obligations, the authors delayed the continuation, only for Nešović’s death to follow, and Greganović wrote that „unexpected sorrow came, indescribable, wider than all seas and vaster than the sky.“
– Precisely because of her, in defiance of knowing that not even she can put an end to our story, this book was finally made – added Greganović. Recalling the thought of the Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov that manuscripts do not burn, Greganović added, „just like that, those we love do not die, and we will love them as long as we exist and as long as the story is within us.“
