Description

Prague is now one of the most popular tourist destinations of the world. Every year, the capital of the Czech Republic attracts visitors by the millions. Many claim that Prague is one of the most beautiful and intriguing cities they have ever seen. The city is known for its splendid cathedrals, palaces, medieval lanes, the famous 14th century Charles Bridge, the Prague Castle, and the nightlife.

Czech history goes back more than a thousand years, and the Czech people have gone through very turbulent times. The country has had its ups and downs. In the 14th century, Prague was the seat of Emperor Charles IV and the political powerhouse of Central Europe. In the 16th century, Prague was the cultural capital of Europe under the rule of Emperor Rudolf II. The twentieth century saw Czechs fall first under Nazi occupation and then under the Soviet rule. It was not until 1989 when the Czechs were able to live in freedom again.

Yet, Prague and the Czech Republic still remain somewhat of an enigma to many. This collection of short crime stories offers the reader a chance to learn more about the Czech psyche, while having fun reading mysteries by such authors as Karel Capek, Jaroslav Hasek or Franz Kafka. Many of the stories have never been translated into English until now.
