This year in 18 venues around Letná, Holešovice and Bubeneč. For Divus Prager Kabarrett is prepared selection from the Lituanian novel Ričardas Gavelis Memories of a young man in the interpretation by Jaromír Nosek.

Ričardas Gavelis is a Lithuanian writer, playwright, and essayist; specifically known for creating intellectual novels and starting a new type of Vilnius mythology. The Memoirs of a Young Man is considered to be his best work. Composed of letters sent by the main character to his friend from the hereafter – “Teacher” – letter by letter, the novel reveals the effect of this relationship on the protagonist, and bares evidence to the struggle of one’s self-realization while growing up in Soviet Lithuanian. The uniform structure of the work is often enlivened by the letters addressed to such historical figures as Karl Marx or Nietzsche.
