Summary
Franja Petrinović: The Mirror Repairer
Mistakes, ideals, justice, victories and defeats, reality and illusion, truths and lies, without clear assumptions, without tangible evidence, without certainty, without final conviction in the imposed naturalness of cause and effect.
Is this all that so firmly binds, in a time without a horizon, the kamenslan of an idyllic dreamer who fails to return to safety belonging, a former lyrical poet bard and ideologist of an era that was crowned and a novelist who despite everything, despite everything, at the end of his life writes a social novel convinced that he will create a mirror of his time?
Or is it just an inexorable feeling of ostracism?
At the end of the day, reasons are never important. Just a question: how do you live with that feeling?
