Mladý Dônč / Young Dônč

The first publication of the collection of novellas that includes the stories Debutant, Young Dônč and Music

The book Young Dônč confirmed Pišťanek as the most outstanding author of the after-1989 era and it deepened the cult-like status of his writing. Since it came out only two years after his Rivers of Babylon, it also made readers believe that this was a continuation of the poetics of the former book. Grotesque, absurd and cruelly ironic, the texts offer a condescendingly ruthless view of an equally ruthless reality.
