Another wonderful reader dipped into my amazon wish list and picked Hidden Camera by Zoran Zivkovic (no relation).
Zoran was the first person in former Yugoslavia to get a PhD with science-fiction as a topic of his Dissertation. Soon after he was the first one to teach SF at the University of Belgrade.

I am looking forward to reading his book now! Thank you!
