Body and aging: (Re)righting old age stereotypes in Dubravka Ugrešić's Baba Yaga Laid and Egg

Society devaluates and treats aging of body as something unacceptable. Dubravka Ugrešić does not deny decaying moment of old age and aging in general. She uses it not only as a plot in her novel but as a powerful medium of detecting, (re)constructing and, eventually, (re)righting the position of old people, old women in particular.
