Description: This entry includes the first part of the e-book "Revščina/zakladi" (Poverty/Treasures) by author Nevenka Miklič Perne (COBISS.SI-ID 275109123, ISBN 978-961-7272-53-6). The collection Poverty/Treasures includes twenty short stories, some of which could be classified as a subgenre of short stories. The heroines who inhabit the stories with their lives are tested at one point or another, and their inner desire is to tell their story, even if their listener is imaginary or they are actually their own listeners. Because your story needs to be investigated and presented like forensics, you need to get to your identity. Others will not dig for your treasures, they will stay on the surface. Regardless of what stage of their life journey the protagonists are at, their storytelling is a need to understand what they have experienced, a moment of purification, of moving from helplessness (poverty) to empowerment (treasures), because the story itself is proof of existence, which is more than nothing (poverty). Some of the heroines still have a lot of work to do to find the value of their story, to forgive themselves, to come to terms with the past, they may run out of time, but they have taken the first step, they have acknowledged their position.
