Abstract
Genre diversity that is characteristic of Ivana Dimić’s opus becomes evident in the structure of her works – in her collection of short stories List of assets, short stories are followed by drama, while on the other hand, in her novel Arzamas short stories alternate with drama parts. It is important to emphasize that genre variety becomes the theme of both works. Short stories included in the collection have a specific form – the point is set at the beginning of the narration, the narrator, who is the author herself, starts the narration in medias res, and some of the stories have a fairy tale opener and are often allegorical. In her novel, the author uniformly models the short stories by choosing in medias res technique as dominant and by giving advantage to the theme that prevails in both of her works – the relationship between love and death which often leads to ambivalent feelings of the narrator.
