Put bez sna
In 1687, Friar Pavao Vučković and Šimun Grabovac face the decision to leave Rama. War drives their community towards Dalmatia, turning the search for safety into a struggle for survival and identity.
Ivan Aralica’s Put bez sna is a historical novel about the migration from Rama towards Dalmatia in 1687. As the Ottoman Empire and the Venetian Republic wage war, the community’s position becomes increasingly precarious. Leaving home means exchanging familiar surroundings for an uncertain future.
The central figures are Friar Pavao Vučković and Šimun Grabovac, a Franciscan and a skilled craftsman whose individual lives become intertwined with responsibility for their families and community. Threats, conflicts and political interests gradually restrict their freedom to choose.
Migration involves more than crossing a border. It brings fear, the loss of home and the question of what people can preserve when forced to abandon almost everything familiar. Faith, memory and solidarity offer support on a journey whose destination cannot guarantee peace.
Combining historical material and oral traditions, Aralica portrays ordinary people caught in far-reaching political upheaval. The novel opens his sequence concerning the Grabovac family and displacement, continued in Duše robova and Graditelj svratišta. A particular historical migration becomes an exploration of dignity, belonging and the cost of survival.
