Description: |
Telling the story of Kristyna, a 45-year-old dentist and her unruly 16-year-old daughter, "No Saints or Angels" is set in contemporary Prague. It spans three generations, taking in the World War II, Communist and post-Communist times. |
Synopsis: |
Ivan Klima is widely recognized as one of the most important Czech writers of his generation. His new novel, No Saints or Angels, is set in Prague during the summer of 1998 and spans three generations, from the Second World War to the present day. Told with great poise and affection, it attempts to make sense of the new, queasy democracy that followed the Velvet Revolution of 1989 and beautifully captures the shifting realities of contemporary Prague. |
