It explores fascism and freedom, and conveys the suffering that war brings with it. This volume will appeal to anyone who enjoys war literature, and constitutes a must-read for fans of Capek’s seminal work. Karel Capek (1890 – 1938) was an early twentieth century Czech writer who is most remembered for his significant influence on the genre of science fiction.
