In 1974 Miško Kranjec published a book of novellas with the title Anketni listi malega človeka. The expression anketni list was transferred from the field of statistics to that of literature and literary technique. It was done in such a way that the author reveals the survey responses offered by ordinary people. Kranjec’s survey is thus a narrative form used as a kind of demoscopic means to collect information, to describe incidents and individual characters, dispositions and fates. For this, those figures are appropriate who »wander« through different human relations and social institutions, walking and experiencing different paths, appearing as personal narrators.
