Written with unsympathetic crudeness, Manual de exilio is a constant reminder of our privileges as inhabitants of the First World. Any bitterness on Velibor Colic’s part would be understandable, given his exile from a beautiful yet war-torn country in ruins, but instead he offers an account of his passion for a world full of beauty. And yet, present on each page is the question, Where is the paradise they promised us?

Cómo aprobar su exilio en treinta y cinco lecciones. Así se subtitula esta extraordinaria novela autobiográfica que destila humor, ternura y también una ironía y una amargura feroces. Escrita con una crudeza inmisericorde, Colic nos hace pensar a cada momento en nuestros privilegios como habitantes del Primer Mundo. Y él, el exiliado de una guerra cercana, de un país hermoso pero en ruinas, que podría escupirnos a la cara nuestra desidia respecto a aquella guerra, comparte sin embargo con nosotros, sus lectores, la pasión por un mundo hecho también de belleza. Late en cada página una pregunta: ¿dónde está el Paraíso que un día se nos prometió?
