Miljenko Smoje
(1923 - 1995)
He was born, worked, and died in Split. He left behind thousands of pages that follow and love Dalmatia day by day, era by era. Kronike o našem Malom mistu (eng. Chronicles of Our Little Town) and Kronike o Velom mistu (eng. Chronicles of Our Big Town) are the literary pinnacle of his dedication, books that have become landmarks of Dalmatia in the collective memory.
He described himself as always writing against the "stench of power."
