“I was so overwhelmed by Pohoda Festival last year. I’m kind of not very fond of festivals and crowds and usually don’t feel like going anywhere! At that time, I was just about to finish my book Citlivý člověk (A Sensitive Person) and all I wanted to do was keep on writing! But I was sent to Pohoda from Václav Havel Library so I had to go there! Going there was the best thing that could happen to me! The plot of a chapter that I still had to finish was suddenly clear to me; I realized that the protagonists, lovers, traveler Táta and actress Soňa – were meant to meet at Pohoda! It was after that that they could start traveling the world. I wrote that chapter right away; that’s how pleasant an influence the festival had on me. I felt like I was part of the future where all went well; all those bands, people everywhere; everything just worked well.  So I was very happy at Pohoda and worked well, too. And I think that there are few novels in the world that were finished in a small green tent to the sound of hellish and at the same time beautiful music of The Prodigy,” Jáchym Topol wrote after Pohoda 2016. He’s going to present his new novel A Sensitive Person at this year’s edition of the festival. Apart from him, the author of book All the Kremlin's Men Mikhail Zygar, Etgar Keret, Irena Brežná and many more writers are coming to the festival. → read more
