Šerbedžija Rade

Summary

Rade Šerbedžija's works: Stranger: chosen poems

Written between the extra-literary topos of Zagreb, Belgrade, Ljubljana, London, Moscow, Provence (...) and literary and artistic personalities of Vladimir Majakovsky, Arsen Dedić, Danilo Kiš, Žika Pavlović, Edvard Munch (...) but also his nuclear family, Šerbedžija's book is a book about war, sacrifice, about new beginnings that were not preceded by experiential or existential completion. It is a deeply humane testament to a fact that the masters of the war had no interest in acknowledging, nor were they intellectually and emotionally capable of recognizing it. And this is that every innocent victim on anyone's side is one victim too many.

 

"For a long time now, a man inside me has been counting my steps. I let him do it, I mean, I can't stop him when he's up to something. He knows in advance what I'm going to ask him, and I'm always surprised by his answer. All in all, I'm already used to him. In recent years, he's been with me constantly. Sometimes it seems to me that he's been living inside me since from my earliest childhood, i.e. how could he know the most intimate things that I have not confided in anyone. I often want him to sit down at the table and talk about everything. He then becomes small and almost invisible and responds from afar, as if this new reality does not exist around us would only talk about the past. Especially about things that I would like to forget as soon as possible. He says (almost mockingly): 'It's all yours. You just need help to organize your memories.'
