Prague
ABOUT
THE BOOK
Prague depicts an intentionally lost Lost Generation as it follows five American expatriats who come to Budapest on the early 1990s to seek their fortune. They harbour the vague suspicion that their counterparts in Prague have it better, but still they hope to find adventure, inspiration, a gold rush, or history in the making. What they actually find is a deceptively beautiful place that they often fail to understand. What does it mean to fret about your fledgling career when the man across the table was tortured by two different regimes? How does your short, uneventful life compare to the lives of those who actually resisted, fought and died? What does your angst mean in a city still pocked with bullet holes from war and crushed rebellion?
