Sažetak
The chapter analyses the ways in which ex- Yugoslav/Croatian-Dutch writer Dubravka Ugrešić in The Museum of Unconditional Surrender, Baba Yaga Laid an Egg, Nobody’s Home, and Karaoke Culture conceives self-imposed exile, displacement, loss of community, and ruptured individual and national identity regarding the breakup of Yugoslavia. Drawing on the concepts of postmemory, re-collection, metafiction, and narrativization, the chapter examines how Ugrešić employs fictocriticism and narrative strategies of fragmentation, a highly subjective narrator, ekphrasis (photograph as imagetext), and generic hybridity to dissect and re-member the mother-daughter relationship as a transgenerational bond. The latter reveals Ugrešić’s focal point for negotiating her personal identity related to her obsolete Yugoslav national identity and her sense of homelessness. The chapter concludes with the analysis of Ugrešić’s replacement of national with class identity.
