Description
A new novel by the holder of the Jiří Orten Award. Young teacher Ondřej Šmíd returns to his hometown to celebrate his grandfather's seventieth birthday. He expects to find an idyllic and sleepy calm in his parents' apartment; instead, secrets, suppressed grievances, and memories that resist forgetting even after years come to the fore. The novel Rubik's Cube takes the reader to the year 2011 and to the end of the war, to the Czech Forest and to Zemplínská Šíravá, but primarily to the streets of Plzeň — the 'most American city in Europe,' which stood up to the then power due to the currency reform as early as the early fifties.
