The main topic of the book is a very special interest in the hero of the novel by Y. Gashek in Russia during the Great Patriotic War. It includes stories about Schweik, written by writers and journalists – participants in the defense of Sevastopol, Leningrad and Stalingrad. The plays about the adventures of the brave soldier who were in the repertoire of professional and front-line theater groups, and the scripts of films about Schweik, whose premieres took place in 1941-1943 are presented. Also, the book includes diary entries, letters, memoirs of war participants, plot narratives, poems, theatrical and filmmakes of that time. Most of the published texts were taken from front -line newspapers, which were not later reprinted, or from the funds of the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art and is published for the first time. The book is complemented by drawings of artists who illustrated stories about the new adventures of Schweik in the war, and photographs of those years.
