Vita Nuova: A Novel (Writings From An Unbound Europe)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Vita Nuova is the second in a trilogy of memoirs written from the perspective

of Bohumil Hrabalâ€™s wife, Elis.ka, about their life in Prague

from the 1950s to the 1970s, when Communist repression of artists was

at its peak.

Â

Hrabalâ€™s inimitable humor, which in Elis.kaâ€™s ruminations ranges

from bawdy slapstick to cutting irony, is all the more penetrating for

being directed at himself. Vita Nuova showcases Hrabalâ€™s legendary

bohemian intellectual life, particularly his relationship with VladimÃr

BoudnÃk. Hrabal creates a shrewd, lively portrait of Eastern European

intellectual life in the mid-twentieth century.
