Summary
Saša Drach: Dnevni bez reda
Saša Drach is a Zagreb bookseller, antiquarian, journalist and translator. At the beginning of the 2000s, he edited the column "Diary without a row" in Jutarnji list for several years. The column was published weekly, and consisted of several diary entries of various well-known public figures from almost all historical periods of written civilization for each day of the week. Behind Drach's many years of persistent collection of diary, columnist and blogger material, with which we look through a keyhole into the intimacy of humanity, there remain hundreds of pages of chaotic, but above all provocative and stimulating miniatures in this book framed in a unique calendar: for each day of the year you will find several diary entries of the most diverse historical figures. Dnevnik bez red as a sort of interpreter of everyday life offers one of the countless perspectives of reading and experiencing the world.
The book contains excerpts from the diaries written by: Anton Pavlovič Chekhov, William Faulkner, Walt Whitman, Franz Kafka, Victor Hugo, Akira Kurosawa, Anais Nin, Simone de Beauvoir, Ivo Andrić, Christopher Columbus, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Ingmar Bergman, Emile Cioran, Miroslav Krleža.
