| Popis: | This paper presents a collection of short stories entitled "The Sunny Islands" written by Jerko Skracic. The author first deals with two short stories which preceded the collection from 1943. The short stories "Braco" and "Kolporter" point out at two dominant characteristics of Skracic's future literary work: the family theme and the dramatic structure of the theme. The collection "The Sunny Islands" consists of three parts. In the first part ("The Shadows of Memories" – "Sjene uspomena"), Skracic evokes his childhood memories in the style of first-person narrative. In the second part ("The Sunny Islands" – "Osuncani otoci"), in one-day short stories, J. Skracic describes the events and writes about the crisis of consciousness of the lonely people on the Kornati Islands. The third part ("The Worried Village" – "Selo u brizi") are romanesque, moreover, dramatic stories from a family life in a closed village world. The short stories in the latter two sections are written in the style of third person narrative. One part of Skracic's short stories is structured in accordance with the main theoretical postulates of this type of prose. Some of them, however, are composed on a romanesque, time wise longer, matrix. The reason for this is the dramatic, psychological situation of the characters, especially emphasised in the family relationships and the family attitude to the rural surroundings. J. Skracic as a writer, drawing on the great French and Russian novelists, remains an impartial witness to the events. However, his empathy for the consciousness crisis of the characters cannot remain unnoticed as well as his "sad and ironic" view of the world in which they live. |
