“The adventures of the brave soldier Schweik” is the most popular work of Czech literature, translated into almost all languages of the world. Its greatness and originality is undeniable. A book that can be perceived as a “soldier bike” and as a classic work directly related to the traditions of the Renaissance. This is a sparkling text, which you laugh at tears, and a powerful call to “lay down weapons”, and one of the most objective historical evidence in satirical literature. In addition to Schweik, the writer is also included in the real publication – not without reason, Gashka contemporaries were loved as a brilliant master of a short story, feuilleton, satirical pamphlet. A sharp pen, not knowing mercy, a wonderful sense of humor and an attentive look of the writer with such masters of the genre as M. Zoshchenko, A. Averchenko, Ilf and Petrov.
