From the internationally acclaimed Czech writer Karel Capek comes this beautifully written and marvelously apt account of the trials and tribulations of the gardener’s life. First published in Prague in 1929, The Gardener’s Year combines a richly comic portrait of life in the garden, narrated month by month, with a series of delightful illustrations by the author’s older brother and collaborator, Josef. Capek’s gardeners—all too human, despite their lofty aspirations—often look the fool, whether they be found sopping wet, victims of the cobralike water hose, or hunched over, hands immersed in the soil, “presenting their rumps to the splendid azure sky.” In their repeated folly, Capek gives us not only cause for laughter but also, in the end, “testimony of the imperishable and miraculous optimism of the human race.” This Modern Library edition is published with a new Introduction by Verlyn Klinkenborg, a New York Times editorialist and the author of Making Hay and The Last Fine Time.

"This very entertaining volume with its delightfully humorous pictures should be read by all gardeners." — Nature. An internationally renowned Czech author presents a richly comic portrait of a year in the life of an amateur horticulturist. Rather than a how-to book, Karel Capek's volume offers a lighthearted mock-treatise on the pains and rewards of tending a small and resistant garden plot that will amuse readers with and without green thumbs.

Karel Capek, author of the acclaimed War with the Newts, is one of the great Czechoslovak writers of the twentieth century. These fairy tales bear Capek's combination of the fantastic and the satirical, offering fairies, elves, and talking animals alongside references to detectives, secret police agents, luxury automobiles, and Hollywood starlets. Filled with the delight of language, dazzling wordplay, a sense of absurdity about the so-called adult world, and a deeply humane vision, these witty stories will appeal to readers of all ages.

It is seldom that a practical guide to gardening attains the level of a literary masterpiece, still more seldom that a book on gardening can amuse and instruct even those who have no garden to plant, nor the faintest interest in acquiring one The Gardener's Year is a characteristic product of Karel Capek's genius: amusing, informative, and full of a quizzical interest in people, animals and plants. In this new version Geoffrey Newsome - the highly acclaimed translator of Capek's witty Letters from England - has captured the grace and irony of the original Czech, to produce a volume that will be treasured equally by those who love gardening as a relaxation, by those who loathe it as a chore, and by those who have no interest in it whatsoever. This edition includes the original illustrations by the painter Josef Capek, the author's brother, who collaborated with Karel on many artistic projects.

Hundens och kattens äventyr är en bok som så gott som alla tjecker känner till. Den är skriven av mannen som, i samarbete med brodern Karel, skapade ordet "robot". Följ med hunden och katten på deras äventyr! De båda vännerna bor tillsammans i ett litet hus i utkanten av en skog. Varje dag har något intressant att bjuda på: man kan ju skura och torka ett golv på olika sätt, och varför inte låtsas att man är tvätt när man ändå måste tvätta sig? Det är jobbigt att knipa sig fast i tvättlinan, så tvätten somnar med detsamma när den väl har hamnat i tvättkorgen. Ja, hunden och katten har mycket att stå i. Inte kan de ligga kvar i sängen hela dagen när de redan för länge sedan borde ha svarat på det där brevet från flickorna i Nynburk! Och så kan man ju överraska Jan och Vera när de ligger sjuka.
