Old Sava Bridge and Amarkord

Demolition of a bridge is not only stupid and harmful, but in a higher sense it is also a sin because bridges, Andrić is not the only one to say, are sacred buildings. This means nothing to the rapacious Skorojevics, just as the very concept of memory is naturally foreign and hateful to them, and destroying bridges is the same as erasing memory. Bridges like Stari Sava connect not only two banks, but also, in a subtle way, the past with the present, and those who are worthy of it could lead to a happier future.
