Fleeting Snow by Pavel Villikovsky

From one of Slovakia's most respected authors, this tender and sensitive look at an elderly couple dealing with illness might remind readers of Michael Haneke's award-winning film, Amour.
Pavel Vilikovský (b. 1941) is one of Slovakia’s most distinctive narrative voices and probably the greatest living Slovak writer. Working as literary editor and translator from the English for many years, he published only two books under communism, preferring self- --imposed silence to self---censorship. He made up for this silence with some prolific output since 1989, publishing over a dozen books of essays, collections of short stories and novels. Vilikovský's self---consciously literary, self---referential and witty prose frequently pillories Slovak national myths.
