Last Friday, September 30, we had a ceremonial christening of my new book The War with Trees at the Kámen Theatre. I am very happy that Professor Jiří Beran took on the role of godfather, who, in addition to being a doctor and one of the first fighters against senseless covid measures, is also an avid reader.
I thank the photographer for the beautiful photos To Peter Pechman and for music to a friend and a great musician Honz Vytásk.
The War with the Trees is a parody of what we have been going through for the past two years. I started writing the book in early 2021 and finished the first draft last summer. The text matured for a while, and at the beginning of 2022 I returned to it, and because the reality again took on a far more absurd form than I even exaggeratedly imagined, I had to write a few more chapters...
After four years, I left Albatros and published the book myself in my own publishing house, and I was able to win with both the graphic form and the cover, and I got 100% freedom.
The book can be bought in all bookstores or directly at our e-shop and with my signature.
I would like to hope that The War with the Trees is a book that could open the eyes and hearts of many people with feelings, because reason and facts have long since failed to do this.
The aging Novak couple enjoy their peaceful small-town life until fate decides to turn it upside down for them - just like eight billion other people - because the trees start to fall.
A banal and essentially funny event, which, however, manages to spin a whirlwind of completely absurd events that the family has to face.
And safety helmets are just the beginning…
A bitterly parodic parable about the contemporary world, which is getting more and more out of whack.
