Смокинята е семейна сага, която обхваща живота на три поколения от едно семейство и се разстила през втората половина на 20 век - от бурните десетилетия на войни и насилие до ден днешен. Войнович е изкусен разказвач и макар в писането му да се долавя мащабност и историческа достоверност, по своята същност романът е съкровен разказ за семейството, любовта, свободата и изборите, които правим. Роман за непрестанните ни опити да разберем самите себе си по-добре - с всички сили и средства, глобални и локални. За разпадането на паметта и безутешното потъване в забравата; за скъсаните връзки, обърканите чувства и тихите ... |

Първо издание. ... Тази книга е пътепис от една разходка в различните епохи на договора за продажба и разказ за впечатленията на развълнуван правен турист от преживяното. Практическият смисъл на вложените усилия е заимстван от сентенцията на Йеринг, че "мечът на правосъдието се изостря върху камъка на теорията". Неустоимо изкушение е спускането към корените от XVII в. на възприетия у нас модел за продажбен договор и драматичните дилеми пред българската облигационна рецепция след Освобождението. Сензационно интересна се оказва съпоставката между европейската "bona fides" и българската добросъвестност, ... |
