An excellent memoir novel from the 1970s is a testimony to the era of the protectorate and the early post-war years in a Czech small town. While filling out a personal questionnaire during the normalization of the 1970s, the author recalls a number of events he witnessed as a child or inferred from his parents' stories. Original memories in the narrative culminate in the fateful Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1968. The book, which stems from the same life feeling as Škvorecký's "The Cowards," is also a powerful testament to the relationship between a son and his mother.
