We are pleased to announce that our student of Croatian and English Language and Literature, Matej Gabud, has received the 2025 Na vrh jezika Award for the best poetry manuscript by an author under the age of 35. His manuscript will be published next year by Jesenski i Turk, and you can read the jury’s detailed explanation, provided by Kruno Lokotar, Marija Andrijašević and Martina Vidaić, HERE.
Matej’s acclaimed debut collection Ameba amebi (Lux Noctis, 2024) was presented at our Faculty in November 2024, when we had the opportunity to discover his exceptional talent and the unique sensibility of his confessional poetry, in which fragility and strength intertwine as defining features of the contemporary individual.
