- When: June 16, 2026, 19:00 – 21:00
This collection of 14 key essays and speeches by Václav Havel could just as easily be titled Everything You Wanted to Read to Get to Know Václav Havel but Didn’t Know Where to Start. Drawing from The Power of the Powerless, A Word on Words, Dear Dr. Husák, Politics and Conscience, Letters to Olga and Europe as a Task, it succeeds in presenting a most illuminating picture of Václav Havel’s (literary) and intellectual world.
The book will be introduced by the author of the foreword, Jáchym Topol, and editors Anna Freimanová and Pavel Hájek.
