Don Juan: Sedam smrtnih grijeha

Mirko Jelušić

In his novel Don Juan, Mirko Jelušić portrays the legendary seducer through the prism of the seven deadly sins. A modernized, psychological and erotic interpretation of Don Juan, full of passion, vices and internal conflicts.

Jelušić's Don Juan is not a classic baroque hedonist, but a complex, charismatic and tragic man of the 20th century who, through his numerous love adventures, embodies all the deadly sins. The author follows him through a whirlwind of passion, power, vanity and inner emptiness, showing how behind the dazzling facade of a conqueror of women lies a deep existential crisis and the restlessness of the modern soul.

Written in a dynamic, erotically charged style, the novel combines sensuality, philosophical reflections and sharp criticism of society. Jelušić masterfully shows how the insatiable search for pleasure and domination ultimately leads to spiritual emptiness. The work exudes the spirit of the interwar period – a mixture of vitalism, decadence and deep pessimism.

This is one of Jelušić's most successful works, which was read throughout Europe in its time. Today it is a real treat for fans of European interwar literature, erotic-psychological novels and reinterpretations of classical myths.
