Příspěvek k dějinám radosti
Description:
The suicide of a wealthy elderly man soon proves to be improbable. The perceptive policeman tirelessly searches for the real reasons for the strange death, which will lead him to the mysterious house under Petrin. The mysteries and motives increase as the hours spent with the young widow increase. The main characters are three, perhaps four women, educated, bold and devoted to a higher justice, according to which the victim and the culprit lose their original duality. And the burning question echoes: how much more violence and wars await us before all this human misfortune finally becomes human? However, the author's grotesque novel, rolling like lava, also speaks of the need for touch, because "bodies do not lie and their memory does not deceive". And a truly compelling role in the book is played by free beings for whom kindness is more powerful than the laws of rulers - the chirping swallows.
