Review
"The beauty of Hrabal's book is how he is able to make this tightly-wound object move...what Hrabal has created is an informal history of the indomitable Czech spirit. And perhaps...the human spirit" (The Times)
"First-hand experience informs Hrabal's work with a wonderful detail, irascibility and charm" (Los Angeles Times)
"Hrabal has invented some of the most memorable characters in world literature" (Los Angeles Times)
