Vasko Popa wrote in a succinct modernist style that owed much to surrealism and Serbian folk traditions ( via the influence of Serbian poet Momčilo Nastasijević ) and absolutely nothing to the Socialist Realism that dominated Eastern European literature after World War II ; in fact, he was the first in post-World War II Yugoslavia to break with the Socialist Realism.

The author also mentions that in his introduction to " Vasko Popa: Collected Poems 1943-1976 ," translated by Anne Pennington Hughes says: " As Popa penetrates deeper into his life, with book after book, it begins to look like a universe passing through a universe.

Since his first book of verse, Kora ( Bark ), Vasko Popa has gained steadily in stature and popularity.
