Summary

 

Ivan Šibl: From Illegal Zagreb 1941.

Without pathos and without teaching, at the same time powerful, poignant, youthfully honest and witty memoirs of Ivan Šibl From Illegal Zagreb, 1941 - 1942 are a testimony of a time when people were forced to choose sides. Like many young men and women in occupied Europe, those in Zagreb, Paris, Prague, Warsaw..., Šibl chose the side that opposed Nazi and Ustasha terror. Even after more than half a century since they were first published, these memoirs remain a supreme work of war prose, necessary and worthy of being forgotten. Ivan Šibl (Virovitica, 1917 - Zagreb, 1989), Croatian writer and politician. During the Second World War, he joined the anti-fascist movement; in Zagreb he was a member of illegal strike groups, and in 1942 he joined the partisans. After the war, he was one of the founders and key people in the development of Radiotelevision Zagreb, whose general director he was from 1954 to 1963. He was also the president of the football club Dinamo (1959 - 1967), in the period when Dinamo achieved its greatest international success - winning the Fair Cities Cup. As one of the most prominent participants of the Croatian Spring, after 1971 he was excluded from public political life. He made his mark in literature in the 1950s with a war-themed prose memoir. The films Our paths diverge (1957), When you hear the bell (1969) and U gori raste zelen bor (1971) and the television series Sumorna Jesen (1969) were made based on the motifs of his notes.
