Description

This unique book introduces young readers to life under communism in Czechoslovakia from 1948 to 1989, when ordinary people lived, worked and dreamed behind the Iron Curtain. The long-awaited project by the Czech artist and writer Petr Sís, who lives in New York, combines drawings, comics and authentic visual diaries in a full-colour edition. Václav Havel describes the book as essential reading for children and their parents who think freedom is a given. Petr Sís presents it as his report from the past and a warning about what could happen again, observing that walls continue to be built in Israel, on the Mexican border and in Ústí nad Labem.
