Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. An English translation of Slovak Jewish writer Leopold Lahola's collection of short stories that face the atrocities and paradoxes of World War II. Slovak Jewish writer Leopold Lahola was able to escape deportation to a concentration camp and fight in the resistance only to find himself forced into exile by the postwar communist regime. He emerged from obscurity during the brief thaw of the Prague Spring, when he was able to return to his homeland and thrive as a playwright and film director. It was also in 1968 that his short story collection The Last Thing appeared in Slovakia. The collection's title proved sadly prophetic with the author suffering a fatal heart attack in January 1968, just before his 50th birthday and as his short stories finally appeared in book form. The nine stories which make up The Last Thing range from the prewar rise of fascism and its dangers for the Jewish community through the concentration camps and the partisan fight against the Germans, concluding in the devastating awareness of all that had been lost and destroyed in the war. Lahola is a master of writing outside of conventional tropes, exploring moral ambivalences where others work within the comforts of good versus evil. He punctures the standard historical image of the partisan fighters by depicting their heroism along with their cruelty and pettiness while also showing how often bravery and madness, kindness and stupidity can coexist. Lahola has written a World War II story collection whose translation will offer not only a compelling read but starkly new perspectives on the tragedy and grandeur of that momentous time in history.

So zanikom a dehistorizaciou zidovskej kultury v Europe zanika postupne aj literatura, o ktorej sa tolko diskutovalo. Zo stavu neistoty a rozdvojenia vznikali diela silneho umeleckeho ucinku, cosi ako tvorive utociste, ako vyraz existencie na okraji. Vo svojich novelach Posledna vec Lahola presvedcivo opisal prirodzeny zivotny pocit cloveka, ktory z bezprostrednej blizkosti poznal pritomnost smrti - smrti nezmyselnej, absurdnej; prirodzeny zivotny pocit cloveka, ktory niesol sam v sebe svojich mrtvych, absurdne mrtvych nevinnych, pretoze cast ludstva narusila rytmus sveta.…
