Bohumil Hrabal: Writer – Czech – Central European

Bohumil Hrabal (1914–1997) is one of the most important Czech writers of the 20th century. His grotesque, tragicomic, subversive novels and poems did not just achieve international acclaim, but were also and are a source of inspiration for Czech filmmakers. To coincide with the "Wer ich bin. Bohumil Hrabal: Schriftsteller – Tscheche – Mitteleuropäer" exhibition at the Literaturhaus on Fasanenstraße, we are presenting three Hrabal adaptations.
