Summary

Vuk Drašković: Monk Hokaj

There is and cannot be anything that would alleviate my sin and guilt.

If anyone ever reads this, I ask him not to think that I am trying to get anyone's pity or to defend myself from the evils committed. No way, no way. I started this confession with the sentence that I am my own prosecutor, defender, and judge. I'm pulling her back. I am only my own prosecutor and judge. I don't have a defender, not even a grain of defense, from anyone, I deserve...

"Drašković's most important novel Monk Hokaj masterfully closes the circle 'from Knife to Sniper'. Reading it is like watching the eruption of a volcano in whose lava, on the verge of apocalypse, burns people, ideas, ideologies, politics, history, states and peoples.

This is Drašković's uncompromising search for the dangerous, blasphemous truths and plague-ridden lies of history in our time and space. Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Kazantsakis, Saramago are in the aura of the novel...

Victim of decades of satanization and assassination attempts, increasingly convinced that the opening of archives and the disclosure of truths about crimes and perpetrators will never happen on this soil, Vuk Drašković decided to give literature the role of the bearer of historical truth once again, and to take away the ancient compliment of being a teacher.

Relentless x-rays illuminate the shameful and criminal role of the church, state security and military elite in the wars of the nineties, but also the darkest corners of a human being who loses his compass and then his identity in the tangle of institutions that train murderers... Monk Hokaj is a howl to the sky and back, including the first unequivocal reference to the war in Ukraine in our literature today."
