Talkin' Moscow Blues

According to my opinion, Josef Skvorecky is the most important Czech writer of my generation, even better than Milan Kundera, certainly with more integrity. His emigré's reflections are so interesting that I bought the book in english to let my children and grandchildren, who do not speak the original language, read it.
