DE Pavel Vilikovsky; last prose; analysis and interpretation
AB A brief recapitulation of Pavel Vilikovsky's life and work prefaces an analytical-interpretive commentary on his last published prose RAJc je prec, which can be considered a personal review of one's real life and creativity, which - thanks to its approach - goes beyond the personal framework. In this piece of work, Vilikovsky (re)presents and critically reflects his life experience, joys, traumas, loves (more precisely: intimate relationships), friendships, and creativity very openly and in detail. All of this using his usual creative instruments, i.e. intellectual scepticism, grotesque optics, irony, self-irony and inimitable mastery of language and composition.
