Knjiga za vse tiste, ki se še danes sprašujemo, kaj smo leta 1991 Slovenci in ostali Jugoslovani dokončno (?) izgubili, kakšne ideale, ideje in idole smo pustili za seboj. Debela knjiga, ki mi je dala misliti tudi o realni politiki, politični naivnosti, hrepenenju po nečem boljšem, ideologiji in veri. Knjiga, ki jo jaz zagotovo dojemam čisto drugače kot starejše generacije, vendar se jo prav zaradi tega splača prebrati tudi ali pa še posebno danes in zdaj. Kljub razmeroma begavem pisanju pisatelja, ki se je očitno lomil pod obilico vtisov in gradiva ter pomanjkanjem časa.
