Barvy budoucnosti
Author: Stanislav Struhar
5,16 €
In Stanislav Struhar's three prose works, Vienna becomes a space for personal encounters, memory, and the search for home. Arno works in a café, and his loneliness is interrupted by growing closeness with his former colleague Ayana. Visiting his grandmother, Martin discovers the city and the traces his family has left there. Michaela lives between the Czech language spoken at home and her own Viennese identity; a new acquaintance raises further questions within her everyday world.
Barvy budoucnosti brings together three independent prose texts. The available opening of the first develops its situation through small gestures, glances, and conversations in which personal closeness meets workplace tension. The melancholic narrative will appeal to readers of intimate literature attentive to relationships and cultural belonging. The Czech edition, translated by Markéta Kliková, offers a short collection rooted in contemporary Vienna.
The three prose works in Barvy budoucnosti are linked by Vienna and people seeking their place in relationships and in the city. The Czech translation of Struhar's texts brings together experiences from different generations and cultural backgrounds.

What is Barvy budoucnosti about?
Čistota barev opens the story of Arno and his colleague Ayana, a student with Ethiopian roots. A change in her working life creates space for closer encounters. In Všechny krásné barvy, Martin visits his grandmother and, through family memories, also discovers his late grandfather's relationship with Vienna.
Poklid starého stínu focuses on Michaela, who speaks Czech at home but considers herself Viennese. Acquiring her own apartment and meeting someone new form the starting point of her story. The texts can be read as three distinct perspectives on closeness, solitude, and belonging to a city. Their resolutions remain for readers to discover.
