Description
What would Erben's ballads sound like if told with humor?
Franta, an ordinary high school graduate, is on the brink of despair from the mandatory reading of 'Kytice'. Everything changes when the Noon Witch herself appears to him – but not as you know her. She shows him the true and surprisingly entertaining versions of the well-known ballads, which hide more humor than horror.
Imagine a Water Goblin who, instead of tragedy, deals with everyday troubles, or a Noon Witch who would rather gather herbs than scare children. In this book, the familiar stories of Karel Jaromír Erben come to life in a completely new light – with exaggeration, irony, and a touch of a modern perspective on old legends. 'Pugét' will make you laugh, surprise you, and perhaps even teach you something new about classic literature.
An ideal book for children, adults, high school graduates, and lovers of Czech literature who want to see Erben's 'Kytice' differently – light-heartedly and with a smile.
