Description
This Czech-language satirical prose follows the fictional town of Toulava as it slowly loses its mind after the pandemic arrives. The town becomes a place of fear, absurd rules, suspicion among neighbours and unexpected opportunities. The individual stories are connected by Roland, an eccentric young man and keen observer who watches the residents of the “happy community” deal with lockdowns, panic, conspiracy theories, remote learning, online meetings and their own weaknesses. Jakub Marek captures the pandemic era with irony, perspective and a slightly bitter aftertaste. The book looks back at something everyone experienced, though they may now prefer to remember it differently, revealing moments that are comic, embarrassing, chilling and deeply human. It is intended for readers of Czech satirical prose and for anyone who enjoys humour with a strong social dimension.
