| Abstract: | This paper will discuss the work of Roksanda Njeguš (1915–2009) in the context of Serbian literature. Roksanda Njeguš was a translator from Slovenian and Italian
into Serbo-Croatian, a writer, and a cultural worker. She published a book of literary
reportage Normirac u srcu (1949) and the novels Kidanje (1959), Stolice na kiši (1978),
and Otpisani iz ružičaste zone (1998). This paper aims to outline one possible line of interpretation of the author’s oeuvre regarding the broader political and cultural context
of its creation. The author’s narrative focus is women’s experience during the National Liberation Struggle, and her last novel is dedicated to the breakup of Yugoslavia.
Therefore, this work will attempt to view her novels as a literary chronicle of Socialist
Yugoslavia through the female experience of struggle. By analysing her novels, this paper will critically reevaluate the author’s marginal position in the canon of the Serbian
literary system. |
