The Association of Fighters of the National Liberation War (UBNOR) and the anti-fascists of Nikšić will unveil a memorial plaque on the house of Nova Marković (the house is now owned by his daughter Milosava Vujović) on Sunday, November 7.
"With a memorial plaque, we want to mark an event that happened just before the start of the Fifth Enemy Offensive in 1943. Namely, in the karst above the house where the partisans were staying, the Croatian poet Ivan Goran Kovačić read his poem 'Jama' to Petar Komnenić, dedicated the poem 'Our Freedom' to him. ' and gave him 'Partisan Songs' at parting. It was the poet's only reading of 'The Pit'. Ivan Goran Kovačić joined the Partisans in 1942 together with the famous Croatian poet Vladimir Nazor. He wrote the poem "The Pit" on the occasion of the Ustasha crime against Serbian life in the vicinity of Livno, when a large number of Serbs were thrown into karst pits around the Livanja field. In the middle of July 1943, he was killed by Chetniks in the village of Vrbnica, near Foča", it is stated in the press release of the Nikšić UBNOR.
Memories of the mentioned events and the poet will be evoked by the president of SUBNOR Montenegro, Zuvdija Hodžić, and representatives of the Croatian Embassy in Podgorica have also announced their presence.
