Meanwhile / Stories of the 21st Century – Magdalena Rutová

The publication ‘Meanwhile. Stories of the 21st Century’ is a personal picture chronicle, which systematically yet absolutely at random covers various possible topics. Its focus is fairly placed on celebrities as well as ordinary people, on the topical as well as marginal themes. The career is a recurrent topic – the career of people, the career of animals, the career of things. Business and success – and failure! Now, now, now. What was Bob Dylan doing when a poor officer finished his lunch break at the other end of the world? Like soap operas trying to encompass the world in its entirety, the book ‘Meanwhile’ presents an account of these efforts as of the year 2021. In the entry form to a Prague psychiatric clinic, there is a question: Do you think something interesting happens every day? The author certainly does think so.
