Tesar – Romansirani životopis sv.Josipa

Božidar Prosenjak

The famous writer in this romanticized biography of St. Joseph captured demanding biblical themes, clearly showing how the Bible still inspires art today.

Although the New Testament information about St. Josip is really stingy, and he was not significantly honored even by a long Christian tradition, this novel of about three hundred pages brings the reader closer to that saint in a suggestive and human way. To what extent did the writer succeed in the character of St. To bring Josip closer to today's man is also the statement of a famous painter who, after reading Prosenjak's "Carpenter", said: "Well, that carpenter had similar problems in his life as I did!"
