8 Days: An Elegy for Thomas Garrigue Masaryk/Osm dni

by Jaroslav Seifert, Tom O'Grady and Translator (Editor), Paul Jagasich and Translator (Editor)

When Mr. Seifert won the Nobel Prize, he told us that the book he wished most to see in print in English was Eight Days, and he declined his The Casting Of Bells royalties for that purpose.

Mr. Seifert won the Nobel Prize a year after we published his The Casting Of Bells.

"Endowed with freshness, sensuality, and rich in inventiveness, his work provides a liberating image of the indomitable spirit and versatility of man."
--The Nobel Committee
