About the book DJEČAK PRED ŽETVU
Dječak pred žetvu već je četvrta knjiga, od toga druga zbirka poezije, mladoga Josipa Čekolja. Zbirka se sastoji od tri ciklusa, nazvana pismima, koja nepoznatog adresata mole da im se piše, a potpisuju ih Josip, Jožek i Joško, koji očito mogu biti i jedan subjekt u različitim ekstazama prostora i vremena.
Pjesme ipak nisu epistole, nego Čekolj piše slobodnim ritmiziranim stihovima različitih dužina organiziranim u strofe, a poeziju autentizira vrlo pristupačnim kajkavskim koji joj dodaje nešto čarolije.
Pjesme donose ruralni imaginarij koji se nužno prožima s prirodom, s etnološkim i mitološkim motivima koji sežu i do pretkršćanskih, ali i skice biografija i socijalnu memoriju koja seže daleko, pa su ove pjesme i vanvremenske i svevremenske. Neke bismo ugodno mogli smjestiti u ozračje Hegedušićeve grupe Zemlja gdje se susreću aktivizam i pobuna s fatalizmom, u drugima pak možemo prepoznati živopisno hlebinske motive koji znaju planuti do nadrealnog.
Ovim skiciranjem zbirka ni približno nije (p)opisana, jer veliko je njezino bogatstvo kojim je obogatila našu književnost.
