"Hrabal has told both the story of a nobody and a history of Czechoslovakia and found in their commonplace details everything tht matters in life".

Released in postal trade to DameEdna in New Jersey.

When I was in the Czech Republic, I made a new friend, a woman who has been the penpal of one of my customers for over 30 years. She recommended Hrabel, one of the most revered writers from what was then Czechoslovakia. I have read 2 of his books already, and thanks to Oldbroad, I have another one TBR! Thanks so much, from one old broad to another.
