Setting out to recover the roots of modernity in the boulevards interiors & arcades of the city of light " Walter Benjamin dubbed Paris "the capital of the nineteenth century." In this eagerly anticipated sequel to his acclaimed Coasts of Bohemia: A Czech History Derek Sayer argues that Prague could well be seen as the capital of the much darker twentieth century. Ranging across twentieth-century Pragues astonishingly vibrant & always surprising human landscape this richly illustrated cultural history describes how the city has experienced (and suffered) more ways of being modern than perhaps any other metropolis. Located at the crossroads of struggles between democratic communist & fascist visions of the modern world twentieth-century Prague witnessed revolutions & invasions national liberation & ethnic cleansing the Holocaust show trials & snuffed-out dreams of "socialism with a human face." Yet between the wars when Prague was the capital of Europes most easterly parliamentary democracy it was also a hotbed of artistic & architectural modernism & a center of surrealism second only to Paris. Focusing on these years Sayer explores Pragues spectacular modern buildings monuments paintings books films operas exhibitions & much more. A place where the utopian fantasies of the century repeatedly unraveled Prague was tailor-made for surrealist Andre Bretons "black humor " & Sayer discusses the way the city produced unrivaled connoisseurs of grim comedy from Franz Kafka & Jaroslav Hasek to Milan Kundera & Vaclav Havel. A masterful & unforgettable account of a city where an idling flaneur could just as easily be a secret policeman this book vividly shows why Prague can teach us so much about the twentieth century & what made us who we are." ...

Philip Kerrs sequence of historical thrillers featuring private detective Bernie Gunther forms a body of work comparable to the great series of the two masters of the genre Len Deighton & John le Carre. The Berlin Noir Trilogy quickly established Kerr & Gunther as the perfect combination of writer character setting & genre. These gritty noir thrillers narrated in Gunthers wry sardonic voice range all over Europe & beyond. They span a 20-year period from the mid-30s to the mid-50s covering the build up to World War 2 the war itself & finally its bitter aftermath. With impeccable research that is accurate in every detail yet never interferes with narrative pace Philip Kerr has created an epic series of thrillers that deserve all the praise that has been heaped upon them. Prague Fatale is Bernie Gunthers eighth outing. Set in Prague in 1942 it delivers all the fast-paced & quick-witted action that we have come to expect from Philip Kerr. It is an outstanding thriller by a writer at the top of his game. ...
