Necista krv

Roman Necista krv objavljen je 1910. godine. Predstavlja remek-delo srpske knjizevnosti. Radnja romana odvija se u Vranju u vremenu koje sledi neposredno posle oslobodjenja od Turaka. To je vreme nestajanja privilegovane, uticajne, bogate klase, ali i njene zivotne energije. U takvom okruzenju, Sofki gotovo da je sudjeno da bude poslednji potomak nekada ugledne vranjske porodice.

Stankovic's beloved classic of desire and decline. Set in Vranje after Ottoman rule, Tainted Blood follows Sofka, last daughter of a once‑powerful trading clan, as marriage becomes a bargaining table and love a rumor from a different life. Written in taut chapters and shadowed by folk cadence, the novel is both intimate character study and social elegy: a world's prestige fading even as its rules still wound. This accessible edition invites new readers to meet one of Serbian literature's unforgettable heroines. Written with clarity and restraint, this edition favors character and mood over plot summary, so shoppers get the feel without spoilers.
