Description
This novella by debut author Zita Maršíková assembles a mosaic of unease in contemporary society. At the centre of its sometimes tender, sometimes hypnotic narrative is a young girl who hides behind the setting of a bygone monarchy from her own past, which nevertheless emerges with every new encounter. Like her, the other inhabitants of Vienna apartments and Polish hotels balance on the edge of existential uncertainty. They search for stability and meaning in a world that seems too vast, for a place to live or somewhere where they can at least keep warm. In addition to occasional points of connection, the characters are united by their eccentric personalities. The book’s eight chapters are thus gradually overgrown by a single escape. The contents are in Czech.
