Sovin huk

Patricia Highsmith

He was too embarrassed to even think about the shame he would experience if he were caught voyeurizing. Voyeurs usually watch women undress... What he felt, what tormented him, was like a terrible thirst that he had to quench.

He had to see her, he had to watch her. In admitting this, he had also admitted that he was willing to risk the possibility of being discovered one night. He would lose his job. His kind landlady, Mrs. Rhoads, the owner of Camelot Apartments, would be horrified and ask him to move out immediately. And then the guys in the office—well, except for Jack Nielson—Robert could easily imagine them saying to each other, “Didn’t I always tell you there was something wrong with that guy?... He never plays poker with us, does he?” He had to accept that risk. Even if no one ever realized how watching the girl calmly go about her daily chores calmed him down, told him that for some people life could have meaning and be joyful, and almost made him believe that he too could find that meaning and that joy again. So the girl was helping him.

Patricia Highsmith

Bilo mu je odviše neugodno i pomisliti na sramotu što bi je doživio kad bi ga uhvatili kao voajera. Voajeri obično promatraju žene kako se svlače... Ono što je on osjećao, što ga je mučilo, bilo je poput grozne žeđi koju mora utažiti.

Svetislav Basara

Srpski pisac poznat po satiričnim romanima, u Andrićevoj lestvici užasa secira balkanski mentalitet kroz parabolu jugonostalgije i nacionalnih mitova. Naziv aludira na Ivu Andrića kao lakmus-papir za kritiku – Balkanci ga svojataju ili odbacuju po volji.
