He Knows Everything!

He Knows Everything! — Laza Lazarević. The boy who frightens his schoolmates fears only his elder brother.

Vučko's recklessness is almost a public institution; Vidak's authority seems equally settled. Yet the narrator's cheerful recollections keep disturbing the labels he puts on people.
