Description

This is the poet Ewald Murrer's first full length prose work. Written as a compilation of journal entries spanning March to December, it relates the strange happenings amongst a group of residents, including a rabbi, a magic goat, an ancient Gypsy and a fortuneteller in a mythical region which could be the Galician Countryside. The entire atmosphere is suffused with a surrealistic quality as people and beasts float across a landscape leaving only cryptic traces of their passage. Murrer gives the narrative a unique and personal lyricism and his use of folklore and myth both connects him to a tradition of Czech literature begun early in this century and places him amidst the new generation of Czech writers.
