ANDRIĆ: wonderful window display of endless seas
„Kad sedim pred kućom, jer imam pred sobom pogled koji izgleda kao da ga je birao neki ljubitelj prirodnih lepo- ta, a ne igra slučaja, vidim široki otvor Boke i celom njego- vom neprekidnom dužinom oštru ivicu mora…“ Tako je pisao Ivo Andrić o pogledu ko- ji se pružao iz njegove jedine sagrađene kuće, podi- gnute u neposrednoj blizini Njegoševe škole, u Njego- ševoj ulici, okružen vladikinim imenom, bez čijeg mu stiha nije prolazio dan. O pogledu koji je za vedrih da- na sezao sve do Lovćena. U vreme najveće slave, nakon što mu je 1961. go- dine dodeljena Nobelova nagrada za književnost, An- drić je u Herceg Novom pronašao „ambijent koji ide- ju oplemenjuje, misao izoštrava, a plemenitu nameru osnažuje“, piše između ostalog dr Vladimir Roganović u knjizi Andrić u Herceg Novom. Nakon što se 1958. godine venčao sa svojom jedinom ljubavi Milicom Ba- bić, počeo je da dolazi u Herceg Novi na odmor. Svake godine u hotel Boka . Zaljubio se u ovaj grad, za koji je tvrdio da mu oduzima moć pisanja jer je toliko lep da mu se ništa ne može dodati i oduzeti, pa u njemu po- digao dom za sebe i Milicu. U njemu je ipak završio Znakove pored puta . Tu se družio sa književnicima, slikarima, umetni- cima, važnim ljudima, ali i onima čija imena ne pam- timo.

“When I sit in front of the house, as I have in front of me a view that looks as though it was chosen by some lover of natural beauty, and not pure coincidence, I see the wide mouth of Boka and the sharp edge of the sea continuously along its length…” So wrote Ivo Andrić describing the view offered by the only house that he had built, which was constructed in the immediate vicinity of Njegoš’s school, in Njegoševa Street, surrounded by the name of the bishop whose verse was part of his every day. About the view that extended all the way to Lovćen on clear days… At the time of his greatest fame, after he was award- ed the 1961 Nobel Prize for Literature, Andrić found in Herceg Novi “ambience that refines an idea, sharpens a thought and strengthens noble intention,” wrote Dr Vladimir Roganović, among others, in his book Andrić in Herceg Novi. After his 1958 marriage to his one and only love, Milica Babić, he started coming to Herceg No- vi for his holidays, staying at the Hotel Boka every year. He fell in love with this city, which he claimed stripped him of his power of writing, because it is so beautiful that he could find nothing to add or take away, so it was there that he built a home for himself and Milica. He nonetheless completed his book Signs by the Roadside while living there… Here he socialised with writers, painters, artists and
