The Czech bestselling author Petra Dvořáková presents her novel The Crows - a haunting story about violence, shame, longing and the silent hope of rescue.
The focus is on twelve-year-old Bára, who grows up in a family full of fear and violence. With psychological precision and linguistic power, Dvořáková tells the story from the perspective of daughter and mother, showing how relationships can simultaneously provide support and destroy.
The Crows, published by Anthea Verlag in a German translation by Hana Hadas, is a bestseller in the Czech Republic and Poland and is considered one of the author's strongest books.
With a reading by Petra Dvořáková and the actress Elna Lindgens, in conversation with Christina Frankenberg (Czech Center Berlin).
An event by the Pablo Neruda District Central Library and the Czech Center Berlin, with the support of the Czechia 2026 project.
