Czech Books A Mosaic of Books

01-03-2009 | Bernie Higgins

This week Czech Books talks to a popular bookman about town, Miroslav Peraica. Miroslav is originally from Croatia but has worked in the book trade in Prague for well over a decade and is now involved in running three of the city's English language bookshops. Over the years his interest in literature has led him to become involved in a variety, or as he puts it, a "mosaic", of cultural ventures, from organising film shows, hosting lectures, editing a literary magazine, and, most recently, setting up a publishing house to translate contemporary Croatian literature into Czech. I visited him in one of his shops in the centre of the Old Town and asked him how he first became involved in the world of books.
