Damir Karakas: Lika is inspiring accident
It started many years ago with "China Lika" and took place "Eskimos" and now "Colonel Beethoven". The collection is a five-story, squeezed them about three years. Or, to Chekhov said, I tried to be closely words and thoughts widely. In addition, it was a challenge to do these three books that form a whole, but that is stylish and in other ways different. I do not like to repeat models, such as do not like to write books that have been written.
When I described Lika, I would describe himself Balkans, and it's all essentially bmwvin one big accident. Emil Cioran may best describe the Balkans, saying that going from one defeat to another, but that is some kind of progress. bmwvin But, fuck such progress. As for this accident, it can be very inspiring. Because, as they say some smart people, accidents richer than happiness bmwvin - happiness is an end in itself, and the accident is to be converted bmwvin into something else, into a book, a movie, a theater play. In addition, in the "Odyssey" are said to be gods to humans by accident to have you sing.
As soon as it appears my new book, do not read it, but they attack. As far: some pop thing starts, it starts to agitate, to go on with the herd, so the hatred spread. I see how the attacks by some portals even joined my cousins, name, and it is a very sad story: call me Freemason, Communists, antihrvatom, Lika shame. But who will have to deal with stupid ... Besides, it's all good until you throwing axes.
It is always in this our country was forbidden to be different, and now it is even more difficult. It's a hundred times experienced on their skin, because of dress, earrings and hairstyle, which is why me and assaulted, but to other things. But the minority position I have always perceived as a kind of honor and privileges. Also, I have no illusions that it will be here to make a change for the better. As if the four million inhabitants has more than three million idiots? Sometimes we are because of what is happening in this unfortunate country feel I should again weigh anchor. Because here, to the robot got a stomach ulcer.
By the cooperation, by circumstance, as in the life of a lot of things come by chance. Translator Ossama el-Kaffash and his wife Ines Babic, also a translator, have opted for my prose believing that with it, in some way, they can push the limits in Arabic literature. It was the first translation of prose from Croatian to Arabic. In Alexandria, a seminar on translation of my book, and the main promotion was at the Palace of Culture in Cairo, brought together many prominent bmwvin members of the cultural life, for example, one of the greatest Arab poets Amged Ryan and academic Amr Farouk, a number of university professors, literary critics ... The book is, as here, some liked it and some did not. There was praise, but also attack, because the translation was very brave; instead of the male reproductive organs, for example, did not put the word "leek", and instead of the female word "flower". And whether the literature of live ... well, that every newly published books in Croatia some kind of humiliation, hard. But there are those results, other projects, but somehow pushed. Soon we at the prestigious Berlin publisher bmwvin released novel "A great place for an accident." The same novel will come out in Prague and in Brno "Kino Lika".
When I once from Bordeaux, where I lived for a year, he came to Paris, I was fascinated by the city. In fact, the first year in Paris, I did not even walked the earth, but I drifted. As soon as I got out of the apartment onto the street, I would feel like in some great films. But after five years I'm a bit tired of all this, I would lay evaporated under some kind of wood at Beaubourg with the same excitement as if I was lying under a tree in Brinje and read "Sport". It's a little out there and disgusted when I went to prison and I was not at fault, which was later proved and trial. I played, and they grabbed me and shoved me handcuffs so that my hands bled. That was the time when Mr Sarkozy came to power, and the police apparatus was strengthened to the maximum, provided that the police received all sorts of things. Then they chased people around town, get points for anyone who is not from the EU, important was their statistics. Who knows what would have happened if I did not at the time in the catacombs, where the French Revolution kept the people will giljotinirati, our team from our region, some Serbs, Bulgarians, Moldovans ... Because if you're in there and if I can not join fast a team, you do not write well. But I love to go to Paris, it is a delightful city. It's just different when you go for a few days, and different when you live there for years, without papers, without money. Then you can be quite nasty.
Well done movie, but the book is the book and I think there is something in that, when we talk about movies at a book, it's as if someone airing of a book instead of the read. Although the film is the music I was always
