Pavel Eisner: Temple and fortress

About how the Czech language lives in the nation and how we live in it. Read by Miroslav Horníček Pavel Eisner's book is a captivating narrative about our mother tongue, an amazing cultural building similar to a temple and a fortress. The short chapters of Eisner's book bring the Czech language closer to "tapping and listening" in a matter-of-fact and witty way, with humour and irony. Miroslav Horníček became the ideal narrator - interpreter of Eisner's popular science text in the radio recording.
