Killing the Second Dog. Marek Hlasko

Аннотация:

Marek Hlasko is enjoying a revival, with three books published in the past year and at least two more planned for 2014-15. Hlasko was a rebel icon, the James Dean of Eastern Europe, and his prose is the perfect mixture of grit and reflection.Hlasko has a cult following and is being taught more than ever in universities.Of interest to readers of Jewish literature, as the story takes place in 1950s Israel.Also the perfect book for smart crime novel readers, as there's a great and gripping plot, but all the conventions of the genre are given an extra Polish, rebel flair. One of the Polish Beat Generation
