Sabrana djela V: Nemirna godina - pripovetke
"Nemirna godina" is a collection of short stories by Ivo Andrić, which includes a number of short stories written during various periods of his creativity.
The collection was first published in 1967, a few years after Andrić received the Nobel Prize for Literature (1961), and is considered a significant contribution to his narrative oeuvre.
The stories cover a wide range of topics, including human destiny, moral dilemmas, love, suffering, history and social relations. The characters are often faced with existential questions and internal conflicts, which Andrić portrays with characteristic subtlety and empathy. The stories are often set in Bosnia and Herzegovina under Ottoman or Austro-Hungarian rule, but with universal motifs that go beyond the local framework.
Significant stories from the collection: "Troublesome Year": The story that gave the collection its name. It focuses on the social and political changes that shake up the daily lives of the characters. "The Tale of the Vizier's Elephant": An allegorical story about human weaknesses, tyranny and fear, with a critical view of authority and power. "Bridge on the Žepa River": A work that shows the builder of a bridge in a remote place, emphasizing the beauty of creation and the traces that people leave in time.
The collection "Nemirna godina" confirms Andrić's status as a master of short prose, because in his stories he manages to show even the smallest details of human life and complex historical circumstances. This work is ideal for those who want to enjoy short but powerful stories.
