Description
A game of remembrance concerning the years 1965 to 1989, in which the author connects the important with the trivial, the personal with the societal, and which also serves as a commentary on life in real socialism. Ouředník does not judge, explain, or comment – he addresses those who shared the same feelings. His reminiscing primarily takes place on the level of language, as language is both the first weapon of any totalitarianism and the only possible defense. The essential transience of these memories simultaneously reveals the absurdity and the forgetfulness of what recently constituted the substance of our lives. Third edition, expanded according to the latest French edition.
