Works

Lazarević wrote a few stories that are counted as part of Serbian realism. He began in his youth under the influence of Chernyshevsky's progressive thoughts , but soon turned into an advocate of the traditional patriarchal Serbian society (zadruga), whose stories usually begin realistically, but then increasingly take an idealistic turn in the course of the plot. Certain moralizing and didactic tendencies are unmistakable. Nevertheless, Lazarević also points out grievances and weaknesses. His well-planned composition of the stories, the concentration on the essentials, a dramatic talent and a calm diction earned him the nickname of a "Serbian Turgenev". Most of the stories are village stories, but in his stories of intellectuals and their lost individuality ( Vetar - Wind ; Verter - Werther ; Švabica - Die Deutsche ) there are psychological interpretations.
