Description
The unveiling of the world through the eyes of a child was at the beginning of Jiří Gruša's poetic career and was also echoed in his novel Questionnaire or Prayer for One City and a Friend. How does this fascination with childhood, in conflict with the often stagnant language of adults, manifest directly in his fairy tales and poems for children? The ninth volume of the Works of Jiří Gruša presents not only printed texts (Kudláskovy příhody, a primer for the Czech exile children Mom, Dad, Me, and Eda. The Czech Alphabet) but also his unpublished radio fairy tales from the 1960s and works that have remained in manuscript form. Additionally, it includes supplements to his writings: the briefcase Elsa and other dramatic and prose translations by Gruša.
