Kamen za Dannyja Fishera

Kamen za Dannyja Fishera

Harold Robbins

Kamen za Dannyja Fishera (1952.) prati život Dannyja Fishera, mladića iz radničke židovske obitelji, u New Yorku tijekom Velike depresije. Dannyjeva priča odražava borbu pojedinca protiv društvenih i osobnih ograničenja.

Danny, talentirani boksač, sanja o bijegu iz siromaštva i uličnog života. Njegova obitelj, suočena s financijskim poteškoćama, raspada se pod teretom siromaštva, dok Danny luta između ambicije i kriminala. Zaljubljuje se u Nellie, djevojku koja mu pruža nadu, ali njegova povezanost s podzemljem, kockanjem i korupcijom uvlači ga u opasan svijet. Dok se penje u boksačkom ringu, Danny postaje meta gangstera koji žele kontrolirati njegovu karijeru. Njegova borba za uspjeh i ljubav vodi ga k tragičnim odlukama, gdje svaka pobjeda ima svoju cijenu. Roman, inspiriran Robbinsovim vlastitim iskustvima, istražuje teme američkog sna, izdaje i moralnih kompromisa, prikazujući surovost urbanog života.

Robbinsov sirovi stil, pun strasti i nasilja, donosi živopisnu sliku New Yorka 1930-ih. Roman je učvrstio Robbinsovu reputaciju autora senzacionalističkih bestselera, spajajući melodramu s realističnim prikazom. Utjecao je na popularnu književnost, naglašavajući teme ambicije i tragičnog usuda. Čitatelji su obožavali dinamiku i emocije, ali kritičari su dijelom osuđivali eksplicitnost. Ipak, roman je postao hit, kasnije adaptiran u film King Creole s Elvisom Presleyem.
