In this paper I analyse relations between the sensual and discursive aspects of Slavenka Drakulić’s prose. Iintend to pay attention to the fact that modern literature disavows the old concept of dualism between the body and the mind. Contemporary authors treat the human being as aunique subject, carefully watching individual activities, thoughts and senses. The latest Drakulić’s fiction combines issues related to experiencing illness and death, human body and identity with the problems of artistic achievements. Her prose is semantically complicated, socially engaged, intersemiotic and impressive.
