Mačak pod šljemom

Joža Horvat

Cult (anti)war novel by Jože Horvat from 1959, a famous Croatian writer for children and adults, playwright, screenwriter, publicist and world sailor.

The main character of the novel is corporal Ilija Kapar, a war hero to whom Horvat's humor(ism) provides freshness and adds lightness in overcoming the tragedy of war. In eighteen chapters, the same number of Ilia's war adventures are narrated, and each of them is preceded by a short, humorously intoned summary. The novel has also been adapted for film and television.
