Kraljevstvo-hrvatsko Quote by Jasna Horvat

“Nepravedno je čitatelja ostaviti da traži i rekonstruira do pola pročitanu priču. Ne želim zamišljati kraj – ni svoj, ni bilo čiji drugi. Početak i kraj dobivamo, a ono što je između njih stvaramo upravo zato da bismo izbjegli razmišljati o početku i kraju. Priču trebam!” quote by Jasna Horvat
