Krátky popis
From Brian Kimberling, the acclaimed author of SNAPPER, comes a
pitch perfect story of falling in and out of love in Prague. Eager
to escape stifling small-town Indiana, Elliott moves to Prague,
where he gets a job teaching English. It's 1998, and the Czech
Republic is moving with increasing rapidity out of the shadow of
communism and into the wilds of twenty-first-century capitalism.
Elliott meets his students in a variety of pubs and conducts his
lessons over pints of local Radegast beer. He gets his shoes stolen
by an experimental artist who engages Elliott in a number of
eccentric schemes. And he meets Amanda, an English teacher from the
UK, with whom he falls in love. Together, they try to make a place
for themselves as strangers in this strange land. They explore the
dark history and surprising wonders of their adopted city, touring
the twisting ancient streets and encountering expats, movie stars,
tobacco executives, a former Soviet informant, and the president of
Poland. But the forces that are reshaping the city are also at work
on them, and eventually it becomes evident that their idyll must
end - that change is the only reality one can't outrun.
