Sat koji otkucava samo tik

Sat koji otkucava samo tik

Ivan Vidić

The ticking clock is a novel about love, betrayal, revenge and crime. Beginning as a story about the passionate love and marriage of the university professor Julio and the young student Lujza, the novel sovereignly takes surprising genre directions.

Playwright and novelist Ivan Vidić intertwines several characters, fictional sleeves, literary and pop-cultural genres, and the heart attack and subsequent heart transplant of a deceived wife and a disappointed professor will open numerous black holes in today's world where "no one has control and madness is the master of the situation". .

The skill and firm narrative hand with which Vidić holds together the themes of love passion and despair, the dark side of the university milieu, migrant smuggling, real estate brokerage, crime and terrorism is truly fascinating, and for the reader it is a furious, exciting and at times grotesque race from chapter to chapter. to chapter, from beginning to end. In the end, there are questions that we regularly ask ourselves anyway without the possibility of a real answer - when are the private triggers activated that turn people into social outcasts and what is their connection with the terrifying world in global disarray? The novel is about the moment when the irrational takes over the situation, reason is lost in the face of feelings, anger and uncontrolled actions. When private madness becomes an "unconscious social revolution", there is no longer any difference between seriousness and farce, humor and horror, in that strange time in which it barely ticks and only - tick!

Lana Derkač

Proza Lane Derkač spada u one rijetke iznimke koje ne pristaju na utrkivanje po ljestvicama čitanosti i prilagođavanje zakonima tržišne logike, iznimke u kojima su suptilnost i promišljanje nadređeni fabularizaciji i koketiranju s čitateljima.
