Petra Soukupova – Zmizet (To Disappear)

Translation: Mirko Kraetsch

The collection of three short tales by Petra Soukupová is an unforgiving insight into contemporary family relations which could be described by words from one of the tales “We live in a certain way. It’s not always bad but seldom good.”

Through a child narrator in the tale Zmizet (Vanished) Petra Soukupová lets us look into a complicated heart of a contemporary family whose entire life has been changed by a car accident.
