Kurlani: Gornji i Donji

Kurlani: Gornji i Donji

Mirko Božić

A post-war novel, the so-called native prose, published in 1952, a revised version dates from 1956, the first part of the "Kurlan trilogy" (followed by "Neisplakani", 1955 and "Tijela i duhovi", 1981) by the Croatian playwright, short story writer and nov

The story takes place in the mid-1930s in the Cetinje region, in two villages at the foot of Mount Kamešnica and in nearby Sinj. The plot is based on a banal court case initiated by the Kurlani Donji because the donkey Sivonja, owned by the Kurlani Gornji, had eaten the vines in their vineyard. However, this is only the framework in which Božić depicts the cruelty of life in the Kamešnica rocky terrain and the rawness of the characters formed by this wilderness.
