Svejk Based on the Good Soldier Svejk and His Fortunes in the Great War

Since Hasek's comic masterpiece was first produced in 1920s Prague, there have been countless attempts to stage this sprawling story of the seeming idiot, Svejk, who survives the horrors of the First World War through use of his very idiocy. This new adaptation draws on contemporaneous styles such as futurism and surrealism, as well as the ideas of Hasek's fellow Czech, Franz Kafka.Teevan, Colin is the author of 'Svejk Based on the Good Soldier Svejk and His Fortunes in the Great War', published 2000 under ISBN 9781840021196 and ISBN 1840021195.
