Prague in the Heart is a collection of one hundred and eighty-nine
true stories of events that have taken place in Prague over the
past two hundred years. They show that the recent past has been no
less dramatic and convoluted than in medieval times. Franz Kafka,
Jaroslav Seifert, Bohumil Hrabal, Jaroslav Hašek, Jan Patočka, Jiří
Dienstbier and Václav Havel were all residents of Prague. Occupying
armies marched through Prague. There was a battle for Czechoslovak
Radio in the Vinohrady quarter of Prague. Czech patriots were
executed in Kobylisy, Prague. Dissidents were detained at Ruzyně in
Prague. A Reich Protector was assassinated in Prague. And
neighborhoods like Smíchov, Karlín and Libeň, once industrial
areas, recorded the history of the Industrial Age – a time when
poverty was intertwined with achievement, progress, and hope for a
better future. Prague in the Heart is not an exhaustive historical
study, but a remarkable literary statement from a renowned author
who loves her city.
