SUMMARY:Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino
DESCRIPTION:“Kublai Khan does not necessarily believe everything Marco Polo says when he describes the cities visited on his expeditions\, but the emperor of the Tartars does continue listening to the young Venetian with greater attention and curiosity than he shows any other messenger or explorer of his.” So begins Italo Calvino’s compilation of fragmentary urban images. As Marco tells the khan about Armilla\, which “has nothing that makes it seem a city\, except the water pipes that rise vertically where the houses should be and spread out horizontally where the floors should be\,” the spider-web city of Octavia\, and other marvelous burgs\, it may be that he is creating them all out of his imagination\, or perhaps he is recreating fine details of his native Venice over and over again\, or perhaps he is simply recounting some of the myriad possible forms a city might take.

SUMMARY:The Physics of Sorrow by Georgi Gospodinov
DESCRIPTION:If you would like to join the bookclub message Lydia or contact@pragueliterarycalendar.com and we can invite you to our whatsapp group.\n______________________________________________ \nThis month we are reading: The Physics of Sorrow by Georgi Gospodinov \nA finalist for both the Strega Europeo and Gregor von Rezzori awards (and winner of every Bulgarian honor possible)\, The Physics of Sorrow reaffirms Georgi Gospodinov’s place as one of Europe’s most inventive and daring writers. \nUsing the myth of the Minotaur as its organizing image\, the narrator of Gospodinov’s long-awaited novel constructs a labyrinth of stories about his family\, jumping from era to era and viewpoint to viewpoint\, exploring the mindset and trappings of Eastern Europeans. Incredibly moving—such as with the story of his grandfather accidentally being left behind at a mill—and extraordinarily funny—see the section on the awfulness of the question “how are you?”—Physics is a book that you can inhabit\, tracing connections\, following the narrator down various “side passages\,” getting pleasantly lost in the various stories and empathizing with the sorrowful\, misunderstood Minotaur at the center of it all. \nPhysics of Sorrow will appeal to fans of Dave Eggers\, Tom McCarthy\, and Dubravka Ugresic for its unique structure\, humanitarian concerns\, and stunning storytelling. \nhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23129709-the-physics-of-sorrow\n_______________________________________________\nOur book club was founded in August 2022 by John Denys. We read Pride and Prejudice and have been very frequent ever since. We are a mixed group of all ages\, genders\, races and political backgrounds. We welcome all people and encourage interesting discussion without judgment. John Denys has now left Prague but the book club still continues today. \nWe select 3 books to read during the meeting\, and then we meet on the first Saturday of each month at 16.00 to discuss.

SUMMARY:The Fifth Head of Cerberus by Gene Wolfe
DESCRIPTION:We are discussing The Fifth Head of Cerberus (1972) by american science fiction writer Gene Wolfe. Wolfe has a reputation for being a writer’s writer and those who like him\, like him a lot. Among his most prominent works are the tetralogy The Book of the New Sun (1980-83)\, which eventually expanded to about a dozen books in the Solar Cycle. Fifth Head treats ideas of colonialism\, identity and obsession. This earlier and much more compact collection of three novellas already offers a glimpse of his style and ideas.
