Bliss Was it in Bohemia

English

By (author): Michal Viewegh

Translated by: David Short

A wildly comic story about the fate of a Czech family from the 1960s onwards. At turns humorous, ironic and sentimental, an engaging portrait of their attempts to flee from history (meaning the 1968 Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia ) or at least to ignore it as long as possible... Light-hearted and sophisticated at once, this is a book that reminds us that comedy can tackle large historical subjects successfully. See more
