On the picture Sanja Kregar.‘Wraak’ by Anđelko Vuletić, a new title at KLIN.A thrilling story about the last deed of an old man who wants to justify his existence.
Vuletić. Translation by Sanja Kregar: ‘Revenge’ is a surprisingly playful novel where the writer and poet Anđelko Vuletić explores the phenomenon of revenge. The central theme is the universal conflict between human drifts and biblical commandments, which allows the atmosphere to oscillate from cheerful to heavy. The poetical narrative is based on a solid traditional ground.
Together with his comrades, previous prisoners of the repressive regime that treated them as enemies of the state, an old man wants the revenge on their torturer from long ago.
However, they have become disabled, nearly blind, slow and clumsy. Moreover, a war is going on in Sarajevo where they live under siege. They don’t even know whether their tormentor is still alive. Above all that, the old men regularly have doubts about their right to seek revenge. In hesitation and adverse circumstances they discover how difficult it is to carry out their plan. But is it for a just cause? Is it meaningful? And is it worth the trouble?
About the writer:
Anđelko Vuletić (1933) was born in Ravno, a small village in the south-east of Bosnia and Hercegovina. During his long life he went missing many times, imprisoned by the former regime, hiding from it or traveling around the country.
Already as a student of Philosophy in Sarajevo he was opposed to the official dogma. He was banned from the cultural mainstream and sentenced to a long wandering over the corners of the country.
He published poems, novels and dramas anonymously. Later on his poetry was translated into French, English, German and many other languages. Anđelko Vuletić won several literary awards. He lives and works in Zagreb since 1993.
‘Revenge’ is his eight novel and the first one translated in Dutch.
The book presentation will be held on Friday, November 6th from 5 – 7 pm at Pegasus publisher and book store, Singel 367 in Amsterdam. Open to the public.

Despite cooling temperatures in the European Mediterranean, the migration flows from African and Middle Eastern countries do not seem to decline.
On the contrary, the month of October showed the strongest increase in arrivals on European soil since the beginning of the year. The International Organization for Migration (IOM) estimates 167,037 new migrants which arrived on the coasts of Italy, Malta, Greece and Spain only during the month of October.
The total number of arrivals on the European Mediterranean coast for 2015 lies now at 760,979. In the last month, 303 people did not survive their journeys across the sea, adding up to 3,406 deaths during the year 2015.
Whilst in October no new arrivals have been noted on the coasts of Italy by the IOM, the number of migrant reaching Greece, in particular its islands, remains high. Only during the first days of November, Greek authorities have registered 4,122 new arrivals, of which some people could have also arrived earlier as the procedure of registration can take some days.
The main countries of origin stay Syria and Afghanistan, whereas most arrivals departed from Turkey before arriving in Greece. Most migrants land on the islands of Lesvos, Kos, Samos, Rhodes, Kalymnos, Megisti, Leros and Chios.
Last month the IOM developed a comprehensive platform on Europe’s Migration Emergency. The platforms indicates and visualizes migration flows from Africa and Middle East to Europe and thereby helps to grasp the complexity and scope of current migration patterns and trends. An interactive map also helps to understand and evaluate trends and key locations.
Given that the platform is continuously being updated, it serves as a tool to follow the current developments in the migrant crisis. The map provides views on recent trends, transit routes, internally displaced and refugees, missing migrants, the network of IOM offices, and the countries Iraq and Syria.

The ambassador of Iran, H.E. Mr. Alireza Jahangiri, referred to Iran’s rich cultural and artistic heritage: “It is a fact that art, in general, has a strong root in our history. Iran is well-known as the owner of one of the richest art heritage in world’s history which encompasses many disciplines including architecture, painting, weaving, pottery, calligraphy, metal work and many other forms of art.”Iranian artist Bahram Sadri Monfared.
The Iranian artists exhibiting their works were Mr. Bozorg Khazraei, Mr. Bahram Sadri Monfared and Mr. Ali Alizadeh who is an ingenious flutist.
Born with a handicap and drawing all his painting with his mouth, Bahram Sadri Monfared drew particular attention from the visitors due to his incredible skill and artwork.
The ambassador of Pakistan, H.E. Mr. Moazzam Ahmad Khan, addressed the long and rich history and tradition of Pakistani artworks and culture: “It goes back as long as 5000 years, even then Pakistan had the tradition of indulging in art”.
The ambassador is proud of “not only rich traditions but the wide spectrum of art – abstract, landscape or calligraphy which can be found in Pakistani culture. On average the country exports 70-80 million dollar worth of art every year”
The artists presented by Pakistan were Soraya Sikander, one of today’s leading contemporary South Asian artists.
Many of her paintings capture landscapes of her home county as well as organic forms. Her specific style of painting was visible on the artworks exhibited at the exhibition. She is listed as an ‘Artist to watch’.
H.E. Mr. Carlos Herrera Ambassador of Peru and his spouse Veronique Miclea.
The ambassador of Georgia, H.E. Mr. Konstantine Surguladze, addressed in his speech the power of art: “Art is a feeling, emotion, it is a story, sometimes short, sometimes endless, sometimes interesting, sometimes not. It is an idea, change, development, transformation. Art is a frozen moment but at the same time it is an endless movement sometimes slow and sometimes very fast. Art is a behavior or a possibility to tell you something. Sometimes art is beautiful, sometimes ugly, but sometimes you can also find beauty in ugly. You are free in art and therefore, art is freedom”. Altogether, he described art as “a universal language that unites us”. The ambassador was also proud to announce six Georgian painters present: Mamuka, Maia, George Kukhalashvili, Nodar Khokhobashvili and Alexey KvaratskheliaDeputy Minister of Iran, Mr. Habiballah Malekshah and Ambassador of Pakistan H. E. Moazzam Khan.
The ambassador of Slovenia, H.E. Mr. Roman Kim, introduced Slovenia as “a small country which has to much to offer. From beautiful landscapes to amazing artworks of our Slovenian artists”.
The ambassador was proud to introduce the presenting artists Ksenija Čerče, Mitja Ficko and Robert Černelč: “They graduated from the Ljubljana Academy of Art and Design in the late 90s and became actively involved in the Slovene art scene at the start of the new millennium. We could say that this is the first new generation of independent Slovenia. This generation of painters responded to the notion of “new” painting in very different ways – on the one hand, by continuing the tradition of the postmodern deconstruction f at image and, on the other hand, establishing intermedial dialogues and incorporating mass-culture image-making and pop aesthetics in their work.”
All three artists, Ksenija Čerče, Mitja Ficko and Robert Černelč, have exhibited their work in Slovenia and abroad.
Ambassador of Bangladesh Sheikh Mohammed Belal and H. E. Moazzam Khan Ambassador of Pakistan.
Further, the exhibition was enriched by the presence of the artists themselves.
The atmosphere was underlined by flute music from Mr. Ali Alizadeh, an Iranian artist, and food and drinks contributed by the embassies, including wine from Georgia and Slovenia, sweets from Iran and savory snacks from Pakistan.

Residents’ meeting accommodating status holders in StatenkwartierBy Roy Lie A Tjam.
The Municipal Executive of The Hague (the Corporation) has decided to make Scheveningseweg 90 available to accommodate status holders (refugees with a residence permit).
The municipality considers it important to contribute toward finding a solution to the refugee problem by e.g. accommodating status holders. This will alleviate the asylum seeker centres.
However, this move should not affect the chances of other residents from finding a home. The municipality is looking for creative solutions to the problem.
On Tuesday 27 October 2015, residents within the vicinity of Scheveningseweg 90 were invited to a residents’ meeting.
Residents were provided information pertaining to the settling of status holders at the above mentioned address. The meeting was held at the World Forum. Speakers at the meeting were: Mayor Jozias van Aartsen, Alderman Joris Wijsmuller and a senior police officer. The audience had the opportunity to pose questions. An information leaflet distributed at the meeting is hereto attached.

Tunisia in 2014-2015, was the world’s largest exporter of olive oil and the second largest producer, processing more than 250 000 tones of olive oil. Olive oil is Tunisia’s main agricultural export item to the EU. It is also an important agricultural resource which provides direct and indirect employment to more than a million Tunisians.
Competitors on the international olive oil market are closely monitoring developments. European farmer and cooperative organization Copa Cogeca has criticized Competitors on the international olive oil market are closely monitoring developments. European farmer and cooperative organization Copa Cogeca has criticized the European Commission’s plans to significantly increase duty-free import quotas for Tunisian olive oil.
Apart from olive oil, Tunisia also exports wine. Wine, (olive) oil and honey have been with us for eons, in biblical times these three products were top commodities. It was then said that “wine makes man’s heart rejoice, makes the face shine”.
The quality of the Tunisian wines is rich in alcohol content, with low acidity, and soft [and pleasant as is the character of new wines?] with the character of new wines and an alcohol percentage of 11 to 12° for both red and rosé, and a slightly lower percentage for white. The Office National de la Vigne de Tunisie, ensures the high standard of wine produced in the country.
In 2012, 225,000 bottles of wine were exported to France, Germany and Morocco. Furthermore, Japan, Ivory Coast and Canada also purchase Tunisian wine.
The Tunisian wine and olive tasting evening on 26 October could be classified as a success and in the words of one olive oil exporter, it gave us a good opportunity to market our product. A Tunisian newspaper referred to the promotional evening as a laudable initiative by Tunisia’s dynamic Ambassador Karim Ben Becher. We are anticipating seeing Tunisian wine and olive oil on Dutch shelves in the near future said the Ambassador.
