Paperback. Etat : New. A haunting novel of post-Soviet Slovakia, centering on an enigmatic one-sided conversation.  "So, as you see, I am familiar with the case. However, we can't discuss it unless you learn more about some other court cases, so that you can compare your father's trial with other, more baffling cases, and see it in the context of the madness that reigned at the time." Ján Johanides' riveting Slovak novel immediately thrusts you into the midst of a bewildering second-person dialogue, bestowing the reader with the role of a silent partner in a one-sided conversation with a mysterious archivist. As the story unfurls piece by piece, it becomes clear that the archivist, who can't seem to stay on topic, has both a tragic history and the key to unlocking your family's darkest secret, a secret that may or may not involve the Czechoslovak secret police, American and Soviet intelligence, Israeli politics, and a tire full of dollars. ? Set after the fall of the Soviet Union and the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, But Crimes Do Punish is awash with paranoia, revealing how the madness of the Communist era continues to bleed into the instability of the present. Written in 1995, this haunting novel-the first work of Slovak fiction published by Karolinum Press-evokes the spirit of John le Carré and the style of Carlos Fuentes while illuminating issues that still plague post-Communist Europe. …

Hardcover. Etat : As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Novela vznikla v polovici sestdesiatych rokov, v obdobi bohatom na literarne experimenty a podnety. Po jej vydani v roku 1967 recenzenti hladali paralely s novym romanom, existencializmom a absurdnou literaturou. Kritika sa zaoberala vplyvom svetovej literatury, pricom menovala autorov ako Sartre a Camus. Pri dnesnom citani je jasne, ze hermeticky text sa vymyka typickemu slovenskemu realizmu. Motivy uzkosti sa objavuju uz od Sukromia a absurdity nachadzame aj v knihe Podstata kamenolomu. V novele Nie vsak nie je jasne, co je realne a co irealne; demonicke sily sa zmocnuju textu a text ma magicky charakter. Uvodna scena bezradneho spisovatela a zahadnej zeny L. na smetisku nas zavadza do ambivalentneho sveta viny a pychy. Zena L., s kafkovskou inicialou, je plna pychy, na rozdiel od Kafkovych hrdinov. Jej pribeh o vine a hriechu, rozpravany na smetisku, je symbolickou hrou. L. nie je hriesna ako Eva, ale ako Kain, ktory sa vysmieva Bohu smrtou a krvou. Chape svoju vinu, ale jej pycha prekryva pokoru. Padly anjel je blizko a navsteva strasidelneho domu posilnuje zvratenu moralku.…

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren. Roman je zaujimavym prienikom do sucasneho mestiactva, ktore uz stratilo svoju vulgarnost a preziva v kultivovanejsich formach. Autor psychologicky velmi presne predklada analyzu jednej rodiny, kde kazdy povazuje ostatnych za svojich nepriatelov, ba ich existenciu chape ako nejaku osobnukrivdu. Kliatbou i demonom tohto mikrosveta su peniaze. Nie nahodou sa prva replika knihy zacina slovami: A teraz to najhlavnejsie - peniaze. Peniaze privodia smrt matky a potencialny rozpad celej rodiny.…

Softcover. Etat : As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Devat na prvy pohlad nesuvisiacich a nesurodnych textov Podstaty kamenolomu spraja postava herca Petra. Johanides rezignoval na nejaku epicku liniu, ba dokonca formalne sa tak pohral s moznymi formami rozpravania a pisania, ze tex miestmi straca citatelsku komunikativnost.Na druhej strane, takato textova praca mu umoznila vytvorit literarny svet zbaveny normality ludskej komunikacie. Herec Peter je cynik, brutalny a pozersky umelec, nafukany frajer. Predvadza sa,strieda spolocnosti i priatelky, pokusa sa o samovrazdu, jeho arogancia a bezocivost je vsak prekryta nanosom milej a sarmantnej bytosti herca, ktory hra aj vo svojom zivote.…
