Young women drift through Prague wondering about unplanned pregnancies, a child’s reflections on the Christian concept of sinfulnesslead to resolve to sin only ‘just a little bit’, drunken men banter over interminable card games, and a woman’s salvation comes in the unexpected form of pickled buttocks. Bringing together authors of different generations, styles and backgrounds – including for the first time in English translation, two stories by Czech Roma – this collection expresses women’s meultiple perspectives on social and intimate issues with by turns caustic and sensitive insight into human nature. ‘Full of humour, acuity and inventiveness’ — Maya Jaggi, Guardian ‘Wonderfully diverse, energetic and entertaining.’ — Bernie Higgins, One Eye Open
