Roman za muškarce

by Michal Viewegh

Najnoviji, dvadeseti roman Michala Viewegha nije samo priča
0 ženi razočaranoj svijetom kojim vladaju ostarjeli dječaci, već
I svojevrsna autorska retrospektiva, samoironičan pogled koji češki autor baca na svoje prethodne knjige i njihove junake.
Roman za muškarce priča je o dvojici braće i sestri (novinaru lokalnih novina, potkupljivom sucu i TV-reporterki) te mladoj striptizeti, koja im se pridružuje na zimovanju u mondenom skijalištu, u aranžmanu koji tek pukim slučajem ne završi ubojstvom. U tom ponekad smiješnom, a ponekad žalosnom četverokutu Viewegh uspijeva razotkriti tajnu komoru „muškog svijeta", pokazati nam što se (i tko se) sve krije iza tako tipično muške opsjednutosti seksom i moći.
I u ovom se djelu dvojbe Vievveghovih junaka (kako živjeti, voljeti, varati, pa i pisati o svemu tome) razrješuju kroz karakteristični humor i ironiju, kojima se pridružuje i bespoštedna kritika svijeta kojim vladaju muškarci.

About the author

Michal Viewegh is one of the most popular contemporary Czech writers and the bestselling one. He writes about romantic relationships of his contemporaries with humour, and variously successful irony and attempts at deeper meaningfulness; he is sometimes compared to Nick Hornby by his fans.

His books, which, since the late 1990s, he publishes every spring, usually sell about 50,000 copies each, bringing him an upper-high-class income unparalleled among Czech writers (by his own boastful admissions, his royalties from a successful book are equal to roughly 8 years of an average Czech salary). His 2004 income was Kč 4 million. Viewegh likes to point out this success with readers, as well as the fact that his books have been translated to several languages and made into films, since he fell out of favor with critics in mid-1990s, which sentiment he heartily reciprocated in his following books.

Lagano štivo koje se čita u jednom dahu od tri mjeseca.

[Nejc Jemec · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ostra, kruta, črnohumorna, zabavna. Nedvomno knjiga za na plažo. Na dušek. Ob pivu. Kakor se za pravega desca spodobi.

This is the second book I read by this author, and I quite like it. Everything is clear and straightforward—there’s no beating around the bush, perhaps even a bit predictable. It’s definitely entertaining, but au contraire to its title, it's a novel that every women should read.

Já jsem čekala, že mě to bude štvát, ale neštvalo mě to. Asi sem stará a smířlivá. Den mi to zlepšilo, a autora tak nějak dokážu chápat.

It is a good book. I like his style- you can read a book quickly. Dont say it is easy summer reading, cuz he hates that :) It is written in style that you can read easily and quickly, but still he find a way to express real thoughts about men and a life.
But no matter what, even if I like the book, it is still to vulgar for me. I will just always stay a big dreamer. Even if I didnt really grow up in socialism, I can still see that Yugoslavia was really different than other communist countries. And we all know that history has a big impact on today and tomorrow.

Chtela jsem dat autorovi jeste jednu sanci a zjistit, zda se jeho styl s lety nezmenil. Nezmenil. Stale stejne donekonecna opakovane "vtipne" postrehy, autor vstupujici do deje, text zahlceny cizimi citacemi, sex, penize a jidlo jako hlavni tema. Jako jedinou prednost vidim rychly spad a ctivost, ktera se bohuzel casem meni v nudnou predvidatelnost. Dilo ve me nevyvolalo zadne emoce, nedonutilo k zamysleni, proste nic, prazdno.

Velké zklamání, čekala jsem víc. Autor se už opakuje, opakuje, opakuje.
