Modri prozori

Danko Oblak

Danko Oblak brings us a panorama of pre-war and wartime events in Zagreb, projected through the sensitive psyche of a six-year-old who experiences a childhood disrupted first by social misery and then by the dangers of war.

The main character is just an observer of war events, and not a conscious hero, which was common in children's war novels of that era. The focus is not on the tense action plot, but on the psychological experience of a child who feels that something terrible is happening, but does not understand the core of the events. He is amazed, confused and scared because he observes the separation of its members in the immediate family and their classification into two enemy camps.
