Description: What happens to a rebel artist when there is nothing to rebel against? The novel follows Pavel Fukova, a Czech cameraman who under Communism dreamed of making a film that would be a searing portrait of his times. Now he can, but somehow he is always too busy with lucrative jobs, a TV spot, a commercial, a porn film. By the author of Love and Garbage.
