Works
In her 2005 book, The inner side of postmodernism: a look at the theory, Ahmetagić openly and sharply re-examines the literary work of academician Milorad Pavić, mostly the one who was defended by critics at any cost, and most often with postmodernist theoretical apparatus. The first part of the book examines Pavić as, according to postmodern critics, the most valuable and typical representative of Serbian postmodernism, and the second part of the book examines postmodernism itself, from the point of view of the statements given to it by its proponents.
