His presentation at the House will focus on his ten years in China and his short stories book about China "Under Thunderous Skies", on his residency stay in Sofia and on his new writing project. Kojadinovic will present visual materials from his travels and will talk about experiencing far-away places in a non touristic manner as well as about the paradoxes of identities, Balkan, global or gender.
