Sat njemačkoga
On an island for difficult-to-educate juveniles, locked in a room and looking out the window at the river Elba, the boy Siggi Jepsen writes a criminal assignment in German on the topic "joy of duty".
As the central character of his composition, which, in his opinion, best illustrates the given theme, Siggi Jepsen chooses his father, a security guard, in charge of supervising a local painter, who is forbidden to paint by the court and the police. A lesson in German turns into a lesson in German history, about people who fulfill their duty in a disciplined but completely uncritical manner, often unaware of the potential evil hidden in them and their actions. This novel was first published in 1968, and this edition is a repeated translation into Croatian by Leo Držić from 1979.
