Through the characters that appear in these seven short stories, the Czech author talks about friendship, love and sex, and about the ways in which people escape from cruel reality.
Through seemingly humorous situations seasoned with irony and sarcasm, the author actually forces the reader to introspect and think about these concepts...

Jaromil, a young poet raised by a possessive mother, seeks a "real life" in poetry and revolution. His lyrical youth, love, and idealism lead him into conformity and betrayal of intimate relationships – he dies young and unfulfilled.

The book contains about twenty stories connected into one whole by the main character (the writer Oskar). It is, therefore, a kind of novel that, through intimate confessions, actually talks about the loneliness of the modern intellectual.
A collection of short stories in which the author, in a poetic style, portrays man as the backbone of all events, and the beauty of Russia and the Russian soul in all its fullness.
