Rat

Rat

Miljenko Jergović

This is not a book about any of the many wars we have experienced. This is not a book about war at all. This is a book about a city under siege and about people under siege. Internal and external.

The city is the space that they all inhabit. The city is the nervous system and bloodstream of each of these people. Each chapter can be read as a separate story, but each story is completed only in the entirety of War. The war should not be read in a hurry, by accidentally opening the book, because in this way confusion is created in its time. But also in the time of the reader himself. A nightmare is being created from which there is no way out. War is like a clock and a calendar, a book of precise chronology. Its dramaturgy derives from chronology, as it does in every war, as well as in mental illness that simulates war. The war should be read in order, because that is the only way to find a way out of the war, a way out of the city under siege.
