Viac o knihe

Winner of the Egon Hostovský Prize as the best Czech book of the year, this epic novel powerfully captures the sense of dislocation that followed the Czechs’ newfound freedom in 1989. More than just the story of its young protagonist—who is part businessman, part gang member, part drifter—it is a novel that includes terrifying dream scenes, Czech and American Indian legends, a nightmarish Eastern European flea market, comic scenes about the literary world, and an oddly tender story of the love between the protagonist and his spiritual sister.

Ta kniha je hodně náročné čtení. Není pro každého vzdal sem to ale není to knihou. Spíš na ní ještě nejsem připravený. Myslím ale že za pár let se k ní s radostí vrátím.
