Sveti psovač

Ivan Goran Kovačić

“The Holy Curser” is a collection of short stories depicting people from the margins – peasants, the poor, outcasts and peculiar individuals – placed in rural, often harsh living circumstances.

The title story tells of a man who, despite his habit of swearing, displays deep inner goodness and moral strength, revealing the contrast between external appearance and real character. The collection is characterized by a strong social sense, lyrical realism, and a deep understanding of human suffering. Through these stories, Kovačić highlights the humanity and morality of those living on the margins of society.
