Most na reci Kvaj / Dželat

Pierre Boulle

Roman Pjera Bula Most na reci Kvaj je klasično antiratno delo koje istražuje apsurde i tragedije rata. Radnja se odvija tokom Drugog svetskog rata u japanskom logoru za ratne zarobljenike na Tajlandu.

Britanski vojnici, predvođeni pedantnim pukovnikom Nikolsonom, prinuđeni su da izgrade most koji će postati ključni deo japanske vojne infrastrukture. Nikolson, u nastojanju da sačuva čast i disciplinu svojih ljudi, radi sa Japancima na izgradnji savršenog mosta, nesvestan da pomaže neprijatelju. Paralelno, saveznički komandosi planiraju da sabotiraju most. Vrhunac romana donosi poražavajuću spoznaju besmisla sukoba, gde predanost dužnosti vodi ka moralnim kompromisima. Delo je oštra kritika militarizma i slepog pridržavanja pravila, oslikavajući ljudsku borbu između časti, opstanka i apsurda rata.
