This book was published in the Czech Republic in 2009. Following
its success among domestic readers, it was translated into
Portuguese. This marks the first edition of the English version.
Eight seemingly independent stories that gently pull the reader
into a microcosmos where childhood phantoms meet the ambivalence of
coming of age. How can we manage to face the daemons from the past
without losing our poker face and keeping our hand on the table?
The former hunters are slowly captured by their own game and the
former losers happily find themselves on the opposite side of the
scale standing close to the top of the rank. Still we never
definitely get rid of our past by cutting all our roots, and our
childhood memories might be good stuff for games more serious than
boiling one's beloved guinea-pig. As usual, Pavel keeps his
well-managed style poignant with ripping dialogues and offers a
masterfully written plot, making this little big book a page
turner!
