Nostalgy and melancholy are among the key concepts necessary for defining the category of memory in the family trilogy of Danilo Kiš. The description of the childhood of the main protagonist of the trilogy – Andreas Sam – is full of both. Despite the fact that the main protagonist grew up during the war, the aforementioned Kiš’ novels are filled with longing for the times past. The nostalgic childhood memories play an important part in the texts and the substance of the protagonist's reminiscences is memorised or exagerrated sensory experience – recollection of the smell of flowers, shapes, colours. This the reason why enumerations (among others) lay such an important role in Kiš’ writings – they somehow allow to store and preserve the past.
