Jedůvky — Maria Knitschke

Marie Knitschke (1857–1940) was a long-forgotten German writer from Šumperk. Her Jedůvky is an original collection of aphorisms: concise, finely honed observations on society, art and human relationships in a provincial town at the end of the 19th century. This edition also includes her surviving letters to European artists, notably the Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. The book is illustrated with linocuts by Martina Trchová.
