I read the author's preface to the opening chapter three times and will read it again in the future. This is truly the most personal, talented, and magical soul I have ever read. Good-looking skin bags are everywhere, interesting souls are really one out of a hundred, and this author I really love. I feel that the charm of the words is really as valuable as a pearl in his eyes, in his hands, and between the lines, there is a flow of talent everywhere.
I worship the sun in the garden tavern, I indulge in the moonlight reflected on the wet sidewalk...
The stories written by the author are the lives of the people at the bottom. Throughout his life, the author was entangled with the lives of the people. Like us, he tasted endless loneliness and bitterness in the lower world, but he could live with a smile on his face. I thought he was just ridiculing the world at a high level, but I didn't expect that in his words full of black humor, there was a lot of real experience and true feelings.
The impermanent Month of April is my weather, the speckled tablecloth is my flag, and under the shadow of the ripples, there is excitement and ecstasy, and I have experienced the downhill and resurrection.
Although Hrabar was born into a solid family, he spent his life inseparable from the people at the bottom. Reading his words, you will feel that the style of writing is strange, is a humorous, unique personality of the big writer, the characters he describes are particularly grounded, are small people, in a small world of sad and pitiful life, and this one after another small world, in fact, with the real world has a great relationship.

And the little people around him, like him, rushed to the front line, each with their own embarrassing life. So he sympathized with them, loved them, and was full of respect for them. Hrabar's work is not unique in perspective, but in reality. He was in that class, and happened to observe and think about that kind of life, so these "Dharma Wanderer" life, which is based on the ordinary Czech people, is a great companion in the author's philosophical world, full of pure Czech taste.
