Love Confessions in the Shadow of Death
In the death cells of Pankrác, prisoners await their last day. Outside the windows, workers are building the guillotine. Anna and Robert, two prisoners sentenced to death, have never met; they are connected only by a few fleeting glances and an endless desire to love. All it takes is a piece of paper and a pencil. In the oppressive atmosphere of the prison cells, they begin to pass fragments of themselves through notes — memories, hope, tenderness. They know time is running out, but the words between them bloom like a flame in the dark. Their story is complemented by quiet heroes — the messenger who delivers the notes and a family from Strašnice, hiding the ashes of the executed.
The novel is based on real notes written in death cells. The author brings forgotten voices to life with deep empathy — showing that even in the hardest moments, a person can love.
