Priča o djevojci Višnji / Dan slobode

Marko Čović

"The Story of the Cherry Girl" and "Freedom Day" are two short stories by Marko Čović that are connected by lyricism, a patriotic tone, and a deep understanding of man's inner struggle.

In "The Story of the Girl Višnja", the author depicts the life of a young, sensitive girl Višnja, her growing up, her first love and facing the challenges of a world that is not always kind to her gentle nature. Višnja's story is intimate, filled with dreams of happiness, but also the disappointments that come with maturing. Through her feelings, attachment to home and native land, the novel carries a strong patriotic charge and a message about loyalty to one's own ideals and values.

In "Freedom Day", Čović depicts the events of a turning point for the individual and the community - the moment of liberation. The focus is on ordinary people, their hopes, fears and sense of responsibility towards their homeland. The heroes of this novella, through personal experiences, testify to the power of freedom, but also to the price it often demands. "Freedom Day" celebrates courage, togetherness and faith in a better tomorrow, emphasizing the importance of preserving human dignity.

Both novels are characterized by a simple, yet emotionally rich style, a pronounced sense of the psychological nuance of the characters, and a sincere attitude towards life, homeland, and man's enduring pursuit of truth, love, and freedom.
