Any sky that is no more

Dola - the eternal wound of the people of Pivlja and eternal insurmountable. Dola - a beer wasteland, but also a sanctuary. A place where more than 520 people from Pivlja were killed in an hour during the Second World War, including 109 children.

A writer Spasoje Bajović he decided to cry out "with a song that measures life and weighs dreams", to listen to "stone steps" that echo in the darkness, to let go of the "chained soul" and at least for a moment clear up the "dazzled view" and write, as he writes it down Milica Kralj, one of the reviewers of his recently published book "Put u vatru" - "an alphabet of dedication to the shot people from Dol". Bajović's book "Put u vatru" is, according to Milica Kralj, a book of memory, "a poetic cry that comes from the deep center of the Dol mountains".

"Each of the poems in this book, in a clear lyrical voice, writes the fate of the individual, the fate of the collective, and the fate of the geographical area of ​​Piva, and with a deep lyrical prayer, it is transformed into a poetic dirge, illuminated by the resurrected unceasing light, woven into the landscape of memory and eternal unforgettability... This book of poems is also a poem and an epic and a novel and a story and a mournful lament," Kralj wrote.

"Do you still remember the earth when the sun goes dark", asks the author of the book "The Road to Fire", but also "is even one truth fair". He writes about the day when Piva's eyes burned, when the fire opened her heart and windows, about the youth that learns history underground, about the moment when "on the black stones the wind writes with a knife, there was one sky that is no more".

"When I first read the manuscript of this book, I wrote: You can't read this and stay alive. I really had to 'die' several times in order to read something, let alone write about the manuscript", wrote the reviewer prof. Ph.D Dear Bojović.

According to her, the author of the book is "a (co)participant in the drama, a poet who observes the bloody pyre in his Piva, a poet who wears it and will wear it forever" and who decided to write "a poetic tribute to the victims and eternal human and knightly dignity and memorial to those who refuse revenge”.

According to the words Sofije Simović, another reviewer, Bajović seeks "dignity in pain, identifies individually with all destinies, although she knows well that pain is private property".

"Everything happened on the 'Road of Fire' itself. History and philosophy and religion happened, the tragedy of a nation happened, the early fruitful Piva lives... The last dance of death and life happened, and above all, the hard and lasting words of the writer Spasoj Bajović. A word without which the present of the Piva family would not be complete, a word without which all the martyrs, sages and knights of Piva would not have arrived at the poet's holy vigil," wrote Simović.

Editors of Bajović's book, which is enriched with pictures Milovan Miki Radulović, its Jovan Draskovic i Miloš Kecojević, while the publishers are the Municipality of Plužine and the "Vladimir Mijušković" Library Association, of which the author is a member.

"In the bosom of Piva, wounds without cure, desolation in man, desolation outside man".
