About the author

Born Zbyněk Fišer, Bondy was a Czech philosopher, writer, and poet. In the late 1940s, he was active in a surrealist group. From 1957 to 1961, he studied philosophy and psychology at Prague's Charles University. From the 1960s, Bondy was one of the main figures of the Prague underground, writing song lyrics for The Plastic People of the Universe. His non-conformism brought him into conflict with the communist regime in occupied Czechoslovakia, and his writings were circulated only as samizdat.
