Ten Years with Václav Havel
With unique photographs by Karel Cudlín
From 1992–2003, Ladislav Špaček worked as the spokesperson for President Václav Havel. In his book, he reminisces about the years spent alongside Václav Havel, the experiences from the president's many foreign trips, his relationships with world statesmen and politicians, domestic travels, the relationship between V. Havel and V. Klaus, Havel's battles with illness, both of the president's wives, and the president's relationship with the media. The book is accompanied by unique photographs, some published for the first time, by the "castle" photographer Karel Cudlín.
Reviews for Ten Years with Václav Havel
A lovely remembrance of various situations the author experienced with President Havel. With his characteristic grace, Mr Špaček can narrate stories both comical and poignant. He always manages to hit the right note. I found myself smiling while reading, but several times I was overcome with emotion. And at the end, I sighed with regret that the days when the President of the Czech Republic was known throughout the world and foreign delegations were practically lining up at the door are gone. It seems those times won't be returning any time soon.

An excellent book full of sad, happy, and also dramatic experiences with President Havel, written by his spokesperson Ladislav Špaček.

A wonderful book. Some stories from Havel's life are so captivating that I read them over and over again. Originally conceived and very entertaining. 5*
