About the Book

Shard, the fifth novel by Mirt Komel, brings together elements of the novel of mystery, postmodern detective fiction, and the academic novel. In their final year of study, a group of Slovenian archaeology students sets off for an internship in Greece, accompanied by their professor and his assistant. Through a novelistic interweaving of Greek mythology and the contemporary world at the “end of time,” the novel reads as an allegory of a generation that leans on the ancient past in order to find meaning in a senseless present.
