Pomračenje o podne

Pomračenje o podne

Arthur Koestler

The novel Eclipse at Noon is one of the most powerful political fictions of the twentieth century. It describes the fate of an idealistic Bolshevik, a victim of Stalin's reign of terror.

The main character Rubashev was imprisoned in 1938 and forced to confess to "crimes against the state" that he did not commit. But in his head he knows that he is guilty because he worked for a system that caused so much suffering. The novel is based on the writer's personal experience as a prisoner and the notorious Stalin trials. It also meant Koestler's break with communist ideology.
