Requirements: ePUB reader, 1.3mb
Overview: Hašek’s most important work was centered around a Czech soldier’s experiences in World War One. It’s actual title is “The Fateful Adventures of The Good Soldier Švejk during the World War”, but it is known by tens of millions of Central Europeans as simply, The Good Soldier Švejk. This monumental, humorous work is acknowledged as “…one of the greatest masterpieces of satirical writing” by no less a standard and exalted reference than the Encyclopedia Britannica.
This new translation and rendition of The Good Soldier Švejk is our attempt to make this Central European masterwork accessible to the modern reader of English. There have been two other attempts and both are, in our opinion, failures in both practice and spirit. The only attempt at a complete English translation has often been criticized, by those who have read the novel in another language, as a clumsy rendition that left The Good Soldier Švejk reading like a hackneyed novel about the British army in the 19th century.
