| Description | Thet third short story book by the Slovak author Uršula Kovalyk (born 1969) entitled Common Dead Father (the previous two volumes were published in Slovakia in 2002 - Unfaithful Women Lay No Eggs - and in 2004 - Travesty Show), appearing in the Prague publishing house MAŤA in 2006, is a suprisingly well-informed and deeply human probe into the life of women burdenet by the numbing stereotypes and mechanical activities of everyday, highlighting the Hrabal-like "tiny pearl found on the bottom of it", which is hidden in every person and surfacing in both and most unexpected moment alike. |
