Ako jedne zimske noći neki putnik
A novel by the Italian writer Italo Calvino from 1979. The postmodernist narrative, in the form of a frame story, is about a reader who tries to read the book If One Winter Night a Traveler. Each chapter is divided into two parts.
This novel about the novel represents a dividing line that quite explicitly marks the penetration of the postmodernist process. By abandoning classic narration and fable, the author makes the fictional prose itself, and its reception, the thematic center of the work, whereby the classic psychological mechanisms accompanying the reception of traditional narrative prose are actually played out. With a pronounced intellectualist departure, the author created an exemplary example of everything that is now called metatextual, metanarrative and metafictional relationship, intertextuality and self-referentiality, which are typical features of postmodernist prose.
