Bret Harte

Klasična zbirka pripovijetki Breta Hartea donosi upečatljive priče s američkog Zapada u kojima se kroz sudbine kockara, lutalica i autsajdera razotkrivaju neočekivana plemenitost, odanost i žrtva.

Zbirka kratkih priča Izgnanici iz Poker Fleta američkog pisca Breta Hartea predstavlja sam vrhunac književnosti o kalifornijskoj zlatnoj groznici i američkom Zapadu 19. stoljeća. Pored poznate naslovne pripovijetke o grupi društvenih izopćenika zarobljenih u snježnoj mećavi, zbirku čini pažljivo odabran niz autorovih najpoznatijih ostvarenja: Srećko iz Roring Kempa, Jedna epizoda iz života g. Džona Okhersta, Tenesijev ortak, Ilijada Sendi Bara, Braun iz Kalaverasa, Dovitljiva devojka sa Sijere i Pukovnik Starbotl kao zastupnik tužilačke stranke.

Kroz surov, ali iznimno živopisan svijet rudarskih logora, kockarnica i divljih pejzaža Sijere, Harte vješto gradi kompleksne likove s društvene margine. Pod vanjskom slojevitošću grubosti, pijančevanja i kriminala, autor s karakterističnom ironijom i toplinom razotkriva duboke ljudske vrline — nesebično prijateljstvo, vjernost, empatiju i spremnost na žrtvu. Svojim dinamičnim pripovijedanjem, majstorskim dijalozima i upečatljivim lokalnim koloritom, ova zbirka ostaje nezaobilazno remek-djelo svjetske kratke proze i antologijski prikaz života na američkoj granici.
