Sabrana djela VI: Žeđ - pripovetke

Ivo Andrić

"Žeđ" is a collection of short stories by Ivo Andrić that was first published in 1936. This collection represents one of the highlights of Andrić's narrative creativity.

The stories in the collection deal with universal themes such as human longing, injustice, alienation, love and suffering. In addition to existential questions, Andrić also depicts the historical, cultural and social circumstances of the Balkans, often with a focus on Bosnia under Ottoman or Austro-Hungarian rule.

The title story "Thirst" uses thirst as a symbol of insatiable human needs, both physical and spiritual. The collection as a whole explores inner conflicts and the juxtaposition of human aspirations with the cruelty of life and nature.

Significant stories from the collection: "Thirst": The title story, symbolic and emotionally powerful, explores the human need for life and meaning despite physical and existential limitations. "U musafirhana": A story about human destiny and the collision of different worlds in one of the Ottoman lodgings. "Mustafa Magžar": A historical story that explores the destinies of individuals caught in the whirlwinds of war and change. "For the camps": A depiction of daily struggles in difficult circumstances, reflecting human endurance and resilience.

The collection "Žeđ" is considered a classic example of Andrić's masterful storytelling and an essential work for all fans of his prose.
