Rick Steves Pocket Prague | Rick Steves, Honza Vihan

Looking for book recs!

I am thinking about going to Prague in September. I have never been! There are not a ton of book recommendations online, so I am hoping some of you might know some. Either fiction or NF set anywhere in Czech - I would prefer a Czech writer (I only read in English), and NO WWII****

I have read most of Kafka, & The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Susanita The hosts of the Strong Sense of Place are expats living in Prague. Their first episode was about their adopted home. https://strongsenseofplace.com/podcasts/2020-01-20-prague/ 4mo

LiteraryHoarderPenny You have to go see the big book tower at the municipal library in Prague. 4mo

ChaoticMissAdventures @Susanita thank you! I will listen. @LiteraryHoarderPenny I plan to! I love seeing other countries libraries, and this installation is so cool. 4mo

Dilara This one might be a bit more difficult to get hold of, but I really enjoyed this Victorian classic by one of the best-loved children's (and adults') authors of the Czech Republic: The Grandmother by Božena Němcová.

The Grandmother: A Story of Country Life in Bohemia

ChaoticMissAdventures @Dilara I will look around for Nemcova! Thank you athe Other City was one of the few I saw on Google that looked interesting and my library has it! Ordering it now. 4mo

ChaoticMissAdventures And I bought tickets. So going to Prague and I think Český Krumlov (UNESCO town) in September! 4mo

Scored these at my building‘s book exchange last night after coming home from watching The Great Lillian Hall at the cinema. Beautiful movie. It was a long weekend in New South Wales so I made the most of it eg. Pots of tea in bed on Sunday and Monday morning as I had ballet on Saturday morning for 3.45 hours. I got in two hours of Pilates on Sunday with the torturer, Flavia. Trying to get to Singapore again soon. So much to do so little time.
