Also, Milutin Bojić died in a Salonika hospital of consumption after experiencing the retreat over the Albanian mountains while Vladislav Petković Dis, perished at sea when a German torpedo struck his transport ship. In 1908, Velimir Rajić was reproached by literary critic Jovan Skerlić for "the too dark, morbid, and almost clinical" tone of his poetry, but he did not deny him as an excellent poet. Skerlić did not realize that Rajić had a short time to live, plagued by ill health since childhood, now compounded with the ravages of war. Velimir Rajić's first volume of verse -- Pesme i proza/Poems and Prose -- is full of local colour and bold enjambement recalling all his harrowing experiences but, as the enfant terrible of the realists, Rajić had a sense of fun and wit which prevented him from taking himself or the pontificating Skerlić too seriously.
