Description
Czechs are often said to be envious, unable to be spontaneously sociable and tolerant. Is this true? How can we find out when hidden negative emotions cannot be quantified by statistics? We can only rely on experience, lived situations, and stories. Sometimes our paranoia and distrust contaminate them, and often they are the result of the magic of the unwanted, containing humor as well. The book Envy in Bohemia has the subtitle The Forms of Friendship, The Forms of Envy. In vividly depicted stories, it primarily maps out the envy of success, which is often more torturous than merely envying a neighbor's goat. The stories of friendship and envy in this book are colorful and often surprising. The author sarcastically depicts rivalry and deceit, mostly among writers or people around the television, not sparing even self-irony. However, the stream of disappointed hopes is illuminated by situations where pure, uncomplicated friendship manifests itself.
