Klatno

György Konrád

Klatno iscrtava unutarnju mapu pustolovine samorazotkrivanja - vlastitih sklonosti, strahova, želja, Ijubavi - vlastitog habitusa, otkrivajući uz to, kao nikad do sada, i tajne piščeve radionice.

Archibald Joseph Cronin

Cronin u romanu majstorski prikazuje sukob između hladnog intelekta i topline srca, štetnost posesivne ljubavi i iscjeljujuću moć istinske ljudske bliskosti. Roman je istovremeno nježna priča o dječjoj duši i oštra kritika emocionalne okrutnosti.

Roman predstavlja putovanje u jedan alternativni svijet – svijet kojem svi s vremena na vrijeme pripadamo, ali čiji dio ne bismo željeli biti, svijet paranoje i otuđenosti za koji nismo sasvim sigurni je li samo alternativa ili gola istina stvarnosti.
