A brand-new English translation of the Czech classic book Oil Lamps by Jaroslav Havlíček. Oil Lamps is a tragicomic work centered in Stěpka Kiliánová, an awkward, formidable woman whose hunger for marriage, family, and belonging leads her into a devastating union. Set in a small Bohemian town at the turn of the twentieth century, it is at once a study of desire and bodily decline, a portrait of a small town under modernisation, and a darkly comic novel about the distance between respectable appearances and lived reality.
