About this product
Product Information
Attempting to go beyond the tourist cliche of Prague as the golden city , this book seeks to bring out all the mystery, ambiguity, gloom, lethargy and hidden fascination of the city on the Vltava. Rippellino slips into the style of melodrama and ghost stories, blending fact and fiction as he writes of the time of Rudolf II, the alchemists, the Jewish quarter, the Golem, the pubs, Meyrink and Zech Dadaists, and of Hasak and Kafka. During his tour through the city, Rippellino pauses to point out not only the splendours of the Gothic and Baroque, but highlights the refuse of the junk sellers, the flea market remains, the crumbling relics, which are equally important to understand the city's history. This book aims to be much more than a literary and cultural history of Prague: it is both a celebration and requiem for an oppressed culture.

- m***l (153)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExceptional service from a very reliable seller. They were offering a long-out-of-print book at a very reasonable price. On checkout I was given a 10% discount code; the book was dispatched with free postage, followed by an email advising they were giving a refund because they considered the book was not in as good a condition as advertised. The book arrived two days later, well-packaged and in great condition too. Thank you WeBuyBooks, I’m happy to recommend such exemplary service.
