Nedovršena priča https://knjiga.test.knjige.hr/nedovrsena-prica-o-henry-1 Thu, 09 Jan 2025 18:46:20 +0000 https://knjiga.hr/nedovrsena-prica-o-henry-1 Priče svojim sadržajima pokazuju piščevo poznavanje života. Njegov životni put vodit će ga do jedinstvenog ispisa lokalnih i urbanih situacija, eklatantnog primjera živog pogleda na stvari, što se vidi iz svježine njegovih kratkih proznih formi. New York mu je bio jedan od glavnih medija, a raznolikost i životnost tema atraktivno poentira na ironičan i duhovit način ili najčešće u pričama slijedi nepredviđeni obrat. Zanimali su ga ljudi raznih profila i sudbina, a najviše se zadržavao na ispisivanju delikatnih i bizarnih situacija svojih likova, običnih ljudi, ali s određenim problemom. Stoga je njegova proza, iako pisana prije stotinu godina, jasna, uvjerljiva i posve suvremena.
