Věra Nováková: Záznamy 1947–1950/1

The immediate testimony of artist Věra Nováková (1928–2024) on the formation of her own opinions and attitudes and the beginnings of her creative work and adult life in the dark years of the emerging communist totalitarian regime in Bohemia. A unique text, outstanding for its original imagery and the tension between passages that are intimate and those that deal with social issues and transpersonal questions. Juvenile notes that were not originally intended for publication and which the author decided to publish only at the end of her long life. A late literary debut. With rich illustrations.
