What would you say if you suddenly came face to face with God, the Devil, or even your own self?

In Impossible Encounters, Zoran Živković presents six mesmerizing stories—"The Window," "The Cone," "The Bookstore," "The Train," "The Confessional," and "The Atelier." On the surface, they appear to be isolated tales of surreal meetings: an encounter with the Almighty, a conversation with the Evil One, a confrontation with one's own reflection, or a dialogue with a figment of imagination.

However, a hidden thread weaves these disparate moments into a startlingly unified whole. By the final story, the reader discovers a shared destiny that challenges our understanding of identity and existence. It is a philosophical journey that breathes new life into the eternal questions: Who are we, and do we ever truly know ourselves?
