Oklopni bataljon

Oklopni bataljon

Josef Škvorecký

A cult novel of devastating humor with only a few rivals in the history of literature!

Here, Škvorecký endlessly humorously profiles and "lines up" the images and circumstances of officers and conscripts ranging from reckless careerists and sadists to swindlers, idiots, liars, racists, adulterers, alcoholics, slackers and slackers of the most diverse backgrounds. Despite the difference in age and hierarchy, "single-minded" thinking is characteristic of all of them. What and where to eat and drink, how to avoid obligations and "catch the curve", how to use every opportunity to unbutton the button.
