Description
Prague, April 1956. Writer Jiří Weil walks through the city like a shadow. While a granite statue of Julius Fučík looks down from Letná, Weil faces an incurable illness and the ghosts of the past in the Jewish Museum. In this evocative novella, Maxim Biller brings to life the fate of a man whose books were banned by both the Nazis and the Communists. Set over a single afternoon in Prague, this sensitive exploration of Jiří Weil’s inner life uses a sophisticated interplay of fact and fiction to reveal not only his inner motives, but also the tangled relationships and circumstances surrounding his life. The contents are in Czech.
