Tales from Two Pockets

Tales From Two Pockets is a collection of 26 of Čapek's stories that deconstruct the mystery tale by breaking rules left right and centre, and still make for wonderful reading. He has a unique slant on the mysteries of justice and truth are full of the ordinary, extraordinary, humour and humanism. This early work by Karel Čapek was originally published in 1928 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography.
