Undoubtedly, homelessness is an interesting phenomenon of today. It
represents a clear social failure which can be viewed as a syndrome
of a complex social failure. Everyone knows the homeless and sees
them on everyday basis, but only few people know about them more
than that they look neglected, drink alcohol and always sleep in
various places. The reality is, however, in many respects
different, primarily as concerns young people for whom the life in
the street may be merely a temporary stage in their lives. The book
entitled Homelessness as an Alternative Existence of Young People
provides information about those who lost their background or even
never had it. It is about life in the street and about what
preceded it, about their attitudes to the various problems which
they face, often unsuccessfully. Young homeless people are
different and the stories and causes of their social downswing are
also different. The description of life in the street where one
loses his privacy, the possibility to satisfy his basic needs and
often even self-respect shows what must be endured in order to
survive. The second part of the publication is devoted to the
opposite process: a return from the street to the society, and the
difficulties that must be overcome in order to accomplish it. Often
it is not merely about coping with one’s past stigma but also other
consequences of non-standard life, such as drug addiction, criminal
records or accumulated debt. The text is based on interviews with
homeless people and represents and authentic picture of this social
group in Prague.
V januári 1965 Gabriel García Márquez cestoval s rodinou na
dovolenku do Acapulca, keď odrazu dostal nápad. Začul vravu
mestečka Macondo. Už vedel, ako napíše svoj nový román. Vrátil sa
domov, zatvoril sa do pracovne, a keď z nej po osemnástich
mesiacoch vyšiel, v ruke držal 1 300 strán rukopisu a bol šťastný.
Román Sto rokov samoty prvý raz vyšiel v roku 1967, Márquez mal
vtedy 39 rokov a svet si navždy zapamätal jeho meno. Dnes je román
považovaný za jedno z najvýznamnejších diel latinskoamerickej a
svetovej literatúry. Je komponovaný z množstva reálnych aj
fantazijných epizód a rozpráva o pôvabných i krutých príhodách
šiestich generácií rodiny Buendíovcov z fiktívneho mestečka
Macondo.
