Mihovil Pavlek Miškina

Mihovil Pavlek Miškina (1887–1942) was a Croatian poet, short story writer and politician. He was a member of the Croatian Peasant Party^[1] and an opponent of the Ustaša regime.

His work usually embraced Socialist ideas and protested against injustice. The pseudonym "Miškina" was adopted later when he started participating in some literary activities of Yugoslavia, and was also nicknamed "peasant writer" some time after. Miškina was executed at the Jasenovac concentration camp in 1942.^[2]
