The anthology is fully bilingual in Czech and English, and it gives us a flavour of the Vltava that is refreshingly different from the river of the tourist brochures. The event will also be an opportunity to meet some of this country’s best poets and translators. David Vaughan went on board to meet the poet Sylva Fischerová and talk about the anthology, with its intriguing title – A Giant Barrel of Rotgut. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/fischerova_sylva1.jpg?timestamp=1590519186 A new Prague anthology celebrates the Vltava as a river of slain crocodiles, viziers and rotgut https://english.radio.cz/a-new-prague-anthology-celebrates-vltava-a-river-slain-crocodiles-viziers-and-8189869 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
