Books
Three books so far — one published, two still on their way. They're all written in Czech; English editions don't exist yet.
Always Too Late
Czech original: Vždycky je pozdě
A story about growing up, depression, and overlooking the things that matter most.
Keo has enough worries of his own. When he occasionally notices he should care about something other than himself, it usually doesn't end well. And when he doesn't notice, it can be too late for all sorts of things.
You won't find this young man likeable. But you will understand him — especially if the word „depression" isn't just the name of your favourite playlist. Then you might appreciate the chance to spend some time with someone who took a while to grasp that you can live with depression too.

Are you a publisher who brings Czech writing to readers in another language? I'd be glad to hear from you — please get in touch.
A Land of Concrete and Rain
Czech original: Země betonu a deště
A contemporary novel set mostly in the Czech Republic and in the mind of Vincent Reis.
For lovers of slow, sprawling narratives unafraid to begin with the protagonist's childhood. For those who don't expect action on every page. And for anyone fed up with books that are all alike.

Nothing New Under the Sun
Czech original: Nic nového pod sluncem
A minimalist novel set in the present and the very near future.
