At Host, one of the largest independent publishing houses in the Czech Republic, we have focused on contemporary Czech and world writing for almost thirty years. The Host brand has become a guarantee of high-quality literature in many genres. We are renowned for the care we take with our editing and the excellence of our graphic design. Our primary aim is to find the right readers for the outstanding books we offer. We take pains to provide ongoing care for our books and their authors after publication.

We currently publish about 150 titles annually, in genres including the following: general fiction, SF and fantasy, crime fiction, the thriller, children’s literature, popular science, specialist literature, poetry.

Host is proud to publish many leading Czech authors. Their popularity with readers and the wealth of literary awards to come their way confirm us in our belief that painstaking care for a book — from manuscript stage through to the last detail — makes perfect sense. Our authors include Alena Mornštajnová and Kateřina Tučková, whose bestselling works account for hundreds of thousands of copies and have been translated into many languages. Our Czech literature programme comprises all the genres mentioned above.

Our literature in translation programme, too, has a great deal to offer. The various stories we take from all over the world are characterized by readability, literary excellence and — last but not least — careful translation. Thanks to us, Czech readers are acquainted with works by authors including Olga Tokarczuk, Fredrik Backman, Chimamanda

Ngozi Adichie, Bernardine Evaristo, Nino Haratischwili and Muriel Barbery

Our crime fiction programme is an integral part of what we do. In their chosen setting of criminal investigation, our authors respond to topical issues — a matter of great

importance to us. We regard the publication of the first part of Stieg Larsson’s Millennium series as a significant moment in our history, for it was this that launched the Nordic noir phenomenon on the Czech market. Our best­performing authors in this genre currently include Lars Kepler, Jussi AdlerOlsen and Peter May.

In recent years we have strengthened our list by adding SF and fantasy, young adult fiction and children’s literature programmes. As we have no fear of the unexplored, we delight in introducing new trends to the Czech market. The most interesting names on our SF­in­translation list include N. K. Jemisin, Ted Chiang, Anthony Ryan and Liu Cixin; our Czech SF authors, notably Pavel Bareš and Petra Stehlíková, have also performed very well. As for children’s literature, our titles include works by successful authors Aleksandra Mizielińska and Daniel Mizieliński, Marianne Dubuc, Emilia Dziubak, Oksana Bula, and Roberto Santiago. Another focus of ours is the high­ quality Czech book for children, by which we bring together an original story with great artwork.

In terms of society, politics and art, the world is changing in all kinds of ways. Fortunately, we will always have books to capture this change. Some of these you will find on our non-fiction list. In the Klimax series, Host publishes original works on issues of climate change.

The history of Host is associated with the literary review of the same name, which first appeared in 1985 as a samizdat anthology. The Host book­publishing house was established in the 1990s for poetry and literary theory, genres to which it remains true. Since the Nineties, the publishing house has been owned by Miroslav Balaštík, Tomáš Reichel and Martin Stöhr.

You can view our books and meet our authors and team at regular events, including author’s readings, panel discussions and book fairs. We take part every year in the international book fairs in Frankfurt, London, Bologna and, of course, Prague, as well as fairs in other parts of the Czech Republic.

PLÁŇATA

Novel about coming of age at a time of revolution

An ordinary family in an ordinary village. Two girls of school age whose parents are in ordinary jobs. Grandparents too, in a rather too snug, patched­up, otherwise perfectly ordinary house. It is 1989, and the old, communist regime of Czechoslovakia is moving silently towards sudden collapse. Pavlína, the main narrator of this multi­voiced narrative, shares her parents’ euphoric illusions of a different, better life, projecting them onto the white walls of her secret wishes and desires. These concern her relationships as well as ideas about freedom and its attractions. It occurs to the girl that her family is like a heath covered with a scrubby vegetation of misunderstanding, emotional hang­ups and, in some cases, aggression.

‘From an outsider’s view, in thematic terms this is perhaps the least striking of this highly successful author’s books. Yet it is one of her most impressive,’ says Martin Stöhr, editor of the book.

‘I’m of the generation that the late Eighties / early Nineties caught on the cusp of puberty. It’s unlikely that such a time will come again. Above all, this book is about how no outside change can solve personal problems and demolish differences of opinion,’ claims the author.

Novelistic pamphlet about the life of humans in a world of cars

Oscillating around the axis of polemic—novel—allegory, this text argues against fetishization of the car as a symbol of progress, independence, power and privatization of the world. All cars have an allegorical undercurrent. The narrator is a courier who delivers food around town, pedals too much, thinks as much as he pedals, and spends much of his day exchanging insults with other road users. Our delivery boy stands on one side of the barricades in the civil war of the streets. His harrowing travels through enemy territory and his implacable fight for justice (whether real or imagined) lead towards callousness and hatred.

The follow­up to Petr Šesták’s memorable novel Continuity in the Park / Kontinuita parku is another work that defies the reader’s expectations. A cross between a polemic and a novel, it presents its opinions with unabashed clarity. Why should literature address a matter from all sides when this matter is unambiguous? This story of a delivery boy who brings food to the luckier and less considerate among us really gets a move on!

‘This work is about growing irreconcilability of antagonisms in society and its systems, amplified by technology. Are we users of technology’s tools or the tools themselves?’ wonders the author.

Markéta Hejkalová (born 1960) is a writer and translator from the Finnish. She has worked as a consulate officer at the Czech Embassy in Helsinki and is a former member of PEN International. She lives in Havlíčkův Brod, where she holds the annual Autumn Book Fair. Her books have been published in six languages.

Love determined by historic change is often of the nonromantic kind. The knotted thread of Czecho ­Finnish relations runs through the life of Czech­German writer Dorothea Illing, to dramatic effect. As it does through that of Carl Gustav Emil Mannerheim, one of the founders of independent Finland.

Inconspicuous decisions can become entangled with great moments of history to affect the lives of whole generations. In the eye of major events, people remain concealed — along with their most ordinary wishes and desires, not least in respect of safety, home and understanding. Heroes, however, must often choose between courage and cowardice, resolution and resignation, sacrifice and selfishness. Consequences of their decisions will reverberate long after the lives of the protagonists have been washed away on the waves of time.

Set against a backdrop of Czecho ­Finnish relations as they truly were, this absorbing fiction is told against the stream of time.

Any love can end in infidelity, any relationship between neighbours in a crazy dispute, any dream of success in going bust. It matters little how much the husband and wife loved each other at first, what lies at the root of their squabbles, or how much true talent there is in each of them. Simona Bohatá’s book of short stories shows the lives of the protagonists without mercy but with insight and understanding — as though she were still sitting at the old carpet­beating rack among the tenements. There will always be cowardly heroes, because we are they, stumbling over the roots of our own doubt, inadequacy and — curiously enough — occasional heroism. Is not the term ‘fate’ just a compassionate excuse for human weakness?

‘Simona Bohatá captures in inimitable style a Prague that is on the way out or already gone. The grotty, vividly rendered environment of her “progressive Czechoslovakia” is populated by many memorable characters whose faults make them life­like and likeable. Though at times harsh and cruel, the world of her fictional heroes is always deeply human. This work’s flavour of nostalgia makes each return to its pages a pleasure,’ says Přemysl Krejčík, the writer.

Jimmy the Sloth and His Backup Band never made it onto the radio. Their career in the music industry ended exactly as it began: as a below­average high­school garage band incapable of giving fans anything of lasting value but chronic whistling in the ears.

Fifteen years later, Dylan is damaging his back in an office job, Jess is fraying her nerves as a teacher at her alma mater, and Casper is trying and failing to take the reins of family life. Nothing remains of their wild youth on the stages of smoke­filled clubs but blurry, bittersweet memories. But then former bandmate Ollie is back with an idea too absurd to refuse: Jimmy the Sloth and His Backup Band should re­form and return to the festival where everything went wrong all those years earlier, turn back time, and realize the dreams of their youth before every last one of them becomes a zombie in the grip of adult responsibilities.

Jimmy the Sloth and His Backup Band is a book about music and the power that slumbers within it, adulthood and fear, friendship, loss, pain and reconciliation. It is also about the need for the bass to keep time with the drums and the belief that playing well is less important than playing loud.

Dumb Souls / Němé duše Jitka Ládrová

Jitka Ládrová (born 1991) lives in Jablonec nad Nisou. She loves to be surprised in her reading and does her best to provide surprise for readers of her fantasy stories. Her greatest successes so far are the story Law of the Pack / Zákon smečky (2016) and her editorship of the anthology City of Kings / Město králů (2021). Dumb Souls / Němé duše is her first novel.

Omden’s father is a brothel­ owner, an occupation Omden hates with a passion and is determined to avoid. He intends to go to university and start a new life with his sister Namia, so saving her from the fate of a girl for hire. He must not fail in this.

Maargelus is the crown prince of the mighty Maer dynasty, and as such raised to appreciate his duties as future king. His father tasks him to maintain diplomatic relations with ambassadors of the empire. A letter from his uncle makes clear that this job will be far from easy.

In Beast Claws — the city in which Omden and Namia live — corpses keep appearing in mysterious circumstances. What if the killer is not the tiger, as humans call him, but something or someone else?

In the heart of the jungle lives an evil that must be given a name.

‘Jitka Ládrová works consciously with elements of classic fantasy, and Dumb Souls is imbued with its atmosphere. Yet she is not afraid to surprise the reader with an unexpected twist or reversal of a genre cliché. Lovers of intrigue and characters of dubious morals are sure to find something to their liking,’ says Jiří Štěpán, editor of the book.

Original Czech fantasy novel, where nothing is as it seems

Jan Kucin (born 1990) comes from Brno, where he is likely to stay forever. He has always been a reader, and the older he gets, the more he reads. In recent years, his love for the fantasy genre in all its forms — book, film, computer game — has inspired him to write. He is a keen sportsman whose life is inseparable from the baseball club Hroši Brno and he works as a grammar-school teacher. His first novel When Stars Fell / Když padaly hvězdy was published in 2021; it is the first part of the fantasy series Crown of Dreams / Koruna snů.

Tragic events in the city of Last Wish have forced Erik and his companions to flee for their lives as well as closing the door on a return to the Hunters’ Settlement for siblings Deva and Kerin. The group embarks on a harrowing journey to the Sea Gate, where they hope to find safety. But many forces in the kingdom are on the move. War has broken out in the Willow Tree Highlands. Fed by superstition and cruelty, fear has the human heart in its grasp. The Hunters are beginning to understand that their greatest struggles will be with the past, the future, and what they allow themselves to do.

At the Sea Gate, Dorian and Vladimír Berton must come to terms with the consequences of their actions, which are sullied with blood, drugs and magic. It is becoming ever harder to keep the network of intrigue and power together. Meanwhile, the demon’s influence is creeping up on them from all sides.

Solomon sets out for the other end of the world without knowing why or precisely where he is headed, and torn about what to do next. After thousands of years of unreality, should he let everything go at last? No, he must go on, even if his journey should tear his body and soul apart.
