Sinossi
L'ispirazione per opere come Catch-22 di Joseph Heller, la satira nera di Jaroslav Hašek The Good Soldier Švejk è tradotta con un'introduzione di Cecil Parrott in Penguin Classics. Di indole bonario e loquace, Švejk diventa il soldato ceco più fedele dell'esercito austro-ungarico quando viene chiamato alle armi allo scoppio della prima guerra mondiale, anche se i suoi goffi tentativi di arrivare al fronte servono solo a impedirgli di arrivarci. Giocando a carte, ubriacandosi e diventando un fastidio generale, l'intraprendente Švejk usa tutta la sua astuzia naturale e il suo sotterfugio geniale per trattare con i dottori, la polizia, il clero e gli ufficiali che lo spingono verso la battaglia. La storia di un "piccolo uomo" intrappolato in una vasta macchina burocratica, Il buon soldato Švejk unisce un gioco di parole abbagliante e una satira tagliente per creare una rappresentazione esilarante e sovversiva dell'inutilità della guerra. La traduzione vibrante, integrale e non censurata di Cecil Parrott è accompagnata da un'introduzione che analizza la vita turbolenta di Hašek come anarchico, comunista e vagabondo, e il carattere di uomo qualunque di Švejk. Questa edizione include anche una guida ai nomi cechi, mappe e illustrazioni originali di Josef Ladas. Jaroslav Hašek (1883-1923) Oltre a questo libro, lo scrittore ha scritto più di 2.000 opere brevi, racconti, glosse, schizzi, per lo più sotto vari pseudonimi. Se ti è piaciuto Il buon soldato Švejk, potresti apprezzare Il maestro e Margherita di Mikhail Bulgakov, disponibile anche su Penguin Classics. "Brillante... forse il romanzo più divertente mai scritto" George Monbiot "Hašek era un genio della comicità" Sunday Times "Hašek era un umorista di altissimo livello... Un'età successiva lo metterà forse allo stesso livello di Cervantes e Rabelais" Max Brod

Informazioni sull?autore
Jaroslav Hašek (Author)
Jaroslav Hašek (1883-1923) wrote more than 2,000 short works, short stories, glosses, sketches, mostly under various pen-names. A prankster and stalwart of innumerable taverns scattered across Bohemia, Hašek was drafted into the Austro-Hungarian army during the First World War and spent much of the war in a Russian prisoner-of-war camp. After the war Hašek launched into writing his devastating and hilarious satire The Good Soldier Švejk, which was tragically left unfinished at his premature death and yet was, by various measures, probably unfinishable.
