Jasmina Atanasova (Macedonian: Јасмина Атанасова; 16 May 1974) is a Macedonian writer, born in Bitola.[1][2]
Education[edit]
She finished her primary and secondary education in her hometown.
She graduated from the Faculty of Pharmacy in Skopje. Currently, she works as a professor at the Municipal Medical High School "Dr. Jovan Kalauzi" in Bitola.[3]
Career[edit]
Her literary and creative interest, as well as her literary preoccupation, have been developing and evolving for a long time, not just with her premier presentation to the public: When the Dust Settles ("Кога ќе стивне прашината"), a novel by Jasmina Atanasova. This debut is only external and formal because, through stylistic and narrative procedures and artistic principles, it represents a mature, serious, well-thought-out work. It moves through the global literary genesis with a highly specific authorial and original principle, evident not only in the quoted intonations of each chapter but also throughout the entire compositional structure. It transforms and synthesizes the literary stylistic universe through a peculiar postmodernist procedure that is exceptionally relevant in today's global literary scene.[4] In addition to this, her creative preoccupation is noted through a series of remarkable essayistic interviews and societal engagement, highlighting her humanistic commitment to the true creative, social, and societal positioning of women. Her constant literary preoccupation is archived in a series of still-unpublished works before the public eye.
Stylistic features[edit]
The novel follows the stream of consciousness technique based on the principles of James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, not in a comparative or inspirational sense, but as a kind of "dialectical" branching. This is a serious contribution to the development and enrichment of the modern Macedonian literature. It is written in the first person, by a female narrator who is simultaneously the character through which the entire narrative principle is reflected.[5]
The specificity of this novel lies in its fluid, clear narrative, dynamic, and harmoniously balanced.
The skill to synthesize the stream of consciousness through a subtle and unobtrusive principle, along with the "traditional" stylistically impeccable rhythmic narrative approach of Isaac Bashevis Singer, makes this novel particularly bold in the successful attempt to merge traditional narrative "architecture" with contemporary currents in internal literary expressions moving simultaneously in multiple directions.
