Svemu ima vrijeme
This collection, the author's prose debut, contains a series of short stories that address social and existential problems of the post-war period, mostly set in the Dalmatian hinterland.
The collection is written in the spirit of socially engaged prose, with an emphasis on a realistic depiction of social changes and human destinies. Aralica uses a meditative and dense writing style, often compared to a modernist approach, with influences from authors such as Knut Hamsun and Thomas Mann. The short stories are deeply rooted in the Croatian cultural and historical context, with an emphasis on the Dalmatian hinterland, where elements of tradition, religion and historical conflicts intertwine. The collection Svemu ima vrijeme laid the foundations for Aralica's later literary work, which established him as one of the leading Croatian prose writers, especially in works with historical themes. This 1990 edition confirms the lasting value and relevance of the short stories that have stood the test of time, as evidenced by their re-publication.
