CONSCIENCE OF THE WORD - THE STORY OF CZECH P.E.N.
Original language description
This book maps the history of Czechoslovak PEN Club from its creation till the present days. The author captured all the important moments of Club life in five chapters not only from strictly historical view, but also from cultural, political and literary perspective. The most interesting part of the book is probably the one about the interwar period in which cultural life was just thriving. On the contrary the activities of Czech PEN during the communist era in the fifties and later in the seventies and eighties were halted under the severe leadership of the party. Only during the sixties there was a short period of liberalization which swiftly ended after the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 and the upcoming process of normalization. The Club had to rest for twenty years until finally there came a complete renaissance of Czech PEN after the Velvet Revolution
