Na rubu pameti

Na rubu pameti

Miroslav Krleža

This is Krleža's only novel written in the first person, the so-called. "Ich-Form" and its content reveal Krleža's idealism. In the novel, through the voice of his nameless hero, Krleža speaks ironically and sarcastically about human stupidity.

Doctor of Law, 52 years old, seems to lead an ordinary civil life, has a family, was a soldier in the First World War. Looking at a group of people with masks opens his eyes - all people are just expressionless masks, pretending to be someone else, and human stupidity is like living oranism, it spreads and becomes a general law that everyone obeys. Although he rebels against such social consciousness, it only brings him more trouble and even imprisonment.
