Steps Through the Mist

Zoran Živković

What connects five women across time when a mysterious mist descends to blur the line between dreams and destiny?

In Steps Through the Mist, Zoran Živković constructs a surreal mosaic novel where five women face the deterministic trap of fate. A student at a boarding school discovers she can inhabit others' dreams, a woman in a straitjacket attempts to choose a specific future from infinite possibilities, and a skier refuses to be a puppet on a string.

As the obscuring mist rolls in, a fortune-teller loses faith in her own predictions, and an elderly woman confronts a vivid past when her alarm clock breaks. Mixing the mundane with the sublime, Živković twists reality to explore how we navigate the fog of existence, asking whether we are walking our own path or merely following steps laid out for us.
