Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes intertextual and intermediate connections between Lukic’s novel and other literary and art works. Through the novel, we can find permeation of Dante’s Inferno, Kafka’s Process, direct citation and allusions of the Bible, Carroll's Alice in wonderland, Ravel’s Bolero and Glamocko kolo. The research of this topic is considered fundamentally important for understanding and interpreting the novel, since Lukic has used intertextual and intermediate connections in this novel to create the number of new meanings, by the principle of illuminativity and insubordination to proto textual templates. The presence of fantasy is also the topic of discussion. The share of fantasy, together with the intertextuality, moves this novel from high modernism to postmodern discourse.
