«In the Hold» is the most famous Serbian novel about the war in the former Yugoslavia. A cult book for which Vladimir Arsenijevic was called the voice of his generation in the 1990s. A generation that listened to Western music, dabbled in drugs, and wanted to live a carefree life, but its youth was affected by war.

The protagonist is threatened with mobilisation into the army, his wife is pregnant and hysterical, his friends go to the front, die or emigrate, the country is falling into the abyss, but, paradoxically, life goes on, and there is room not only for suffering, but also for humour, love and hope. And the amazing feeling that you will soon become a father, but deep down you are still a child. A child who looks at this world, doesn't understand it, is afraid of it, but has to pretend to be an adult and a serious man.
