Description
Some houses have interesting fates intertwined with the people who live in them. In the Adda villa lived generations of the Fischl-Rybiček family, whose lineage dates back to the thirteenth century. However, the reader meets this originally merchant family in the 19th century, not only in their family villa but also in the region around the Berounka and Kačák rivers. What life stories, dramas, and joys will the members of this family encounter? Václav Junek's novel is a literary saga in the style of Forsyth, but set in a purely Czech environment. The plot loosely traverses the twentieth century and, with a somewhat open ending, extends to the present day. Against the backdrop of the story, real events, places, and personalities of Prague and especially the Beroun region come to life.
