“Both we and they were surrounded by the only victor: the utter silence of the ancient earth, indifferent to human misery.”

It was interesting at parts, but some parts were a lottle dragged and themes are repeated very often. I did like it, it's very self analysing and deep.

”Tvrđava je svaki čovjek, svaka zajednica, svaka država, svaka ideologija!”

Meša Selimović nam je predstavio odnos koji pojedinac ima sa društvom kao i unutrašnje konflikte sa kojim se, mislim svako od nas, susreće bar jednom u životu. Pouka koju sam ja izvukla iz ovog romana je ako želimo da se razvijamo i napredujemo kao individua, moramo srušiti zidove koje smo podigli oko sebe i iskusiti sve što nam život pruža, kako dobro tako i loše.
