What if a melody was not just a sound, but a demonic touch weaving the fate of strangers together?

In Seven Touches of Music, Zoran Živković composes a literary septet where reality is tuned to a strange and haunting frequency. The book presents seven seemingly unrelated stories that are slowly woven into a "tight novelistic rope" by the invisible, and sometimes sinister, presence of music.

As the narrative unfolds, the boundaries between the listener and the sound blur. It is only in the finale that the true conductor of this mysterious symphony is revealed, challenging the reader to guess who—or what—has been pulling the strings all along. It is a masterful exploration of how art can touch the soul, for better or for worse.
