In 2010 we start the series of poetic meetings entitled: “MYSTICS – WRITERS – MADMEN”.
This special metaphysic-social happening presents literary output of key representatives of literary alternative. The authors represent different forms of presence in the so-called “underground literature”. They all share a disapproval for current world and contest repressive socio-political reality in common. Getting these colorful figures together we have new perspective of publicly unapproved literature of eighties and nineties.
