This is an existential novel by the Slovene émigré writer, poet and essayist Zorko Simčič, who wrote it in Buenos Aires in 1957. This novel is considered the first existentialist literary work in the Slovenian language and the greatest achievement of Slovene émigré literature in general. Later it was translated into English, Polish and Hungarian. The Slovene edition was only published after the democratic changes of 1991, which demonstrates that Simčič was a forbidden and undesirable author in socialist Slovenia.
The novel's story is devoted to a Slovenian intellectual who, after the war, goes away to Argentina in exile. Through his character and fate, Simčič describes the ideological divisions among the Slovene people during and after the Second World War. However, the novel does not deal with external events, but rather the intimate drama of a Slovenian intellectual who struggles with his wartime memories in the post-war period. Simcič depicts the restlessness of a fugitive who has lost his homeland and the inner mental division between the fidelity of his wife and his in love for another woman, who paradoxically belongs to the opposing ideological side.

The book was written by Ljubo Sirc, a Slovenian émigré and economist of liberal orientation and is devoted to criticism of Yugoslav self-management socialism. Sirc's economic analysis proved that the Yugoslav economy led by a self-management model was doomed, since it was led by profoundly utopian and anti-economic thought.

Vytauto Skuodžio laiškas JAV prezidentui Džimiui Karteriui buvo parašytas 1979 metų lapkričio 28 dieną. Šiame laiške V. Skuodis save pristatė kaip JAV pilietį (Benedict Scott, gimusį Čikagoje 1929 metais). Laiške V. Skuodis atskleidžia žmogaus teisų padėtį sovietinėje Lietuvoje. Jis taip pat mini KGB atliktą jo bute kratą, kurios metu buvo paimti rankraščiai, tarp kurių ir “Dvasinis genocidas Lietuvoje”. Ši knyga yra detalus tyrimas apie KGB vykdomą Katalikų bažnyčios persekiojimą. V. Skuodis planavo persiųsti šį rankraštį į Vakarus, kad ten jis būtų publikuotas. Tačiau ši knyga buvo Lietuvoje išleista tik 1996 metais.

Ivan Blatný emigrated to England in 1948. In Czechoslovakia, he was labelled a “traitor” and became a banned author. Later, the Czechoslovak Radio even falsely announced that Blatný had died in England. In 1968, during the era of the “Prague Spring”, the interest in Blatný and his poetry grew in Czechoslovakia. An example of this increasing interest, there was a programme dedicated to Blatný’s poetry called “The Smells of Brno”. This programme, advertised by a small poster from the Ivan Blatný Collection, was organised by the Czech director and artist Karel Fuksa in the Brno House of Arts. Blatný’s poems were recited by Czech actors Ladislav Lakomý and Helena Kružíková. According to Fuksa, the hall was full. In the same year, the Blok publishing house issued the second edition of Ivan Blatný’s “Melancholic Walks”, and Blatný’s poems sporadically appeared in Czechoslovak press or on the Radio. Then, Blatný’s texts could be officially published in Czechoslovakia only after 1989.
