Description
Could the good soldier Švejk withstand the terrifying alien gods? What would a zombie epidemic look like in the middle of the Karlovy Vary festival? What massacred a unit of Czechoslovak legionnaires in the High Tatras? How will the Czechoslovak People's Army deal with a downed UFO? And can Karel Čapek solve a series of mysterious deaths before another one occurs? Each of the fourteen stories in this book proudly adheres to a different horror or comedy tradition. A wild ride awaits you from Dickens to King to Šimek and Grossmann, but all the stories share two things in common: a love for Czech realities and an obsession with spooky tales. Comedian and publicist Jan Studnička switches styles like deadly weapons, with a language dirtier than the trenches of World War I and humor darker than an SS uniform.
