Put do subote

by Daša Drndić

Neobična povest o iskušenjima i iskustvima koja može doživljavati, u naše vreme i u našem svetu, jedno mlado ljudsko biće. Lišena onoga što se uobičajeno naziva materijalnim problemima, odrasla u ljubavi i u razumevanju, dobro školovana, mlada žen — glavna ličnost ove proze — uči se da živi i da sazreva uprkos (ili možda zahvaljujući njima) dubokim usamljenostima, razornim ljubavima, promašenim susretima. Nevinost mladalačkih uverenja meša se ovde sa tananom i nepatvorenom intelektualnom radoznalošću, sa težnjom za istinom po svaku cenu. Ova proza pisana je nepatetično a povremeno i namerno tvrdo, sa mnogo humora.
