I鈥檝e read The Good Soldier 艩惫别箩办 twice 鈥� once when I was still adolescent and second time when I was already an adult. I enjoyed it both times, though quite differently.
Everything begins on the eve of the Great War鈥�
Besides many other things, this extravagant tale seems to be one of the first examples of postmodern novels full of delicious black humour.
This world of ours is a huge lunatic asylum and we all are patients there.
Everything begins on the eve of the Great War鈥�
鈥淪o they鈥檝e killed Ferdinand,鈥� said the charwoman to Mr. Schweik who, having left the army many years before, when a military medical board had declared him to be chronically feebleminded, earned a livelihood by the sale of dogs 鈥� repulsive mongrel monstrosities for whom he forged pedigrees. Apart from this occupation, he was afflicted with rheumatism, and was just rubbing his knees with embrocation.
鈥淲hich Ferdinand, Mrs. Muller?鈥� asked Schweik, continuing to massage his knees. 鈥淚 know two Ferdinands. One of them does jobs for Prusa the chemist, and one day he drank a bottle of hair oil by mistake; and then there鈥檚 Ferdinand Kokoska who goes round collecting manure. They wouldn鈥檛 be any great loss, either of 鈥榚m.鈥�
Besides many other things, this extravagant tale seems to be one of the first examples of postmodern novels full of delicious black humour.
I really don鈥檛 know why those loonies get so angry when they鈥檙e kept there. You can crawl naked on the floor, howl like a jackal, rage and bite. If anyone did this anywhere on the promenade people would be astonished, but there it鈥檚 the most common or garden thing to do. There鈥檚 a freedom there which not even Socialists have ever dreamed of.

"Nowadays it's fun being locked up," 艩惫别箩办 continued with relish. "There's no quartering, no Spanish boots. We've got bunks, a table, a bench. We're not all squashed together like sardines: we get soup; they give us bread and bring us a jug of water. We've got our latrines right under our snouts. You can see progress in everything."
Jaroslav Ha拧ek was a born practical joker and mischief-maker. What better author to write a comic novel that's also a war novel than this renowned literary Czech hoaxer. As Milan Kundera observed, in Homer and Tolstoy war had a comprehensible meaning and people fighting the war knew what they were fighting for. With Ha拧ek things are much different: soldiers like 艩惫别箩办 go off to battle without the foggiest idea why they are fighting - and even more alarming, without even wanting or caring to find out.
The Good Soldier 艩惫别箩办 is a classic work of European literature, one of the most popular and beloved novels ever published. Memorable scenes and quotable lines, as the one cited above, pop out on every single one of its 750 pages.
Penguin Classics is to be commended for Cecil Parrott's lively English translation and also including a Guide to the Pronunciation of Czech Names, maps, Josef Lada illustrations and the translator's extensive Introduction providing biographical notes on the author as well as social, cultural, historical and literary context for the novel.
The first chapter starts off with a bang - the shooting of the Archduke Ferdinand, nephew of the Austrian Emperor, and his wife at Sarajevo by a Serbian nationalist. Not exactly history's peaches and cream event as this bang-bang-bang propelled Europe into the First World War. What follows gives a reader a real bang for their buck, mostly of the comic variety taking the form of what I term a "艩惫别箩办 moment." Here are a four such"艩惫别箩办 moments" I count among my personal favorites:
1. Thrown in jail at police headquarters with a bunch of other anti-government conspirators, labeled as such for things like not reading the newspaper about the recent events in Sarajevo, one shocked man cries out, "I'm innocent!" to which 艩惫别箩办 replies, "Jesus Christ was innocent too and all the same they crucified him. No one anywhere has ever worried about a man being innocent. Grin and bear it."
2. The government official in the pub who took 艩惫别箩办 off to prison promised to return with armed guards so he could arrest the pub owner since he let flies shit on a portrait of the Archduke he had hanging in his pub. When the pub owner is thrown in the cell with 艩惫别箩办 and the other men, he instantly becomes despondent. 艩惫别箩办 shakes his hand cordially and says: "I knew that gentleman would keep his word when he said that they'd come for you. Punctiliousness like that is a good thing"
3. 艩惫别箩办's landlady is beside herself with upset and wants sympathy. She tells 艩惫别箩办 she is going to jump out the window, to which the good soldier replies: "If you want to jump out the window, go into the sitting room. I've opened the window for you. I wouldn't advise you to jump out of the kitchen window, because you'd fall on the rose bed in the garden, damage the bushes and have to pay for them. From the window in the sitting-room you'll fall beautifully on the pavement and if you're lucky you'll break your neck."
4. A policeman attempts to trap 艩惫别箩办 by buying dogs from the good soldier. He keeps the dogs in a room without feeding them. Some time thereafter, upon entering the room, the dogs tear him to pieces. When 艩惫别箩办 hears of this most tragic event, he says: "It gives me a headache to think how they are going to put all his pieces together when the day of the last judgement comes."
As Cecil Parrott states in his Introduction and a number of other literary critics have noted, a more complete appreciation of Jaroslav Ha拧ek鈥檚 novel forces us to fathom 艩惫别箩办鈥檚 character which is complex and multifaceted and knotty . 艩惫别箩办 is quick to acknowledge with pride that he received a military discharge for patent idiocy but, as we come to learn the more we read, 艩惫别箩办 is nobody鈥檚 fool. Although he frequently plays the dunce, it becomes increasingly clear 艩惫别箩办 is keenly analytic, knowledgeable, well-read and possesses a deep understanding of human nature.
What adds much depth to the tale is all in the contrast: from beginning to end 艩惫别箩办 remains calm, almost angelic; his eyes glow with innocence and tenderness, his face radiates kindness, gentleness and light; he speaks his words with such sincerity and honesty that those around him, even the most hardheaded and militaristic, are taken by his presence. Meanwhile individuals in power like the police and military officers are characterized as selfish, vulgar, uncouth, loutish, even brutal, sadistic and inhumane.
Returning to the character of 艩惫别箩办, there still remains the issue: to what degree is 艩惫别箩办 at one with his glowing innocence? Or, stated another way, how much of what we read of 艩惫别箩办's adventures is a matter of the good soldier playacting in order to manipulate those around him? Readers are left to decide for themselves. However, one thing is clear: a sweet, kindly, honest 艩惫别箩办 from the tip of his cap to the laces of his boots makes for a story both charming and heartwarming.
So here we are at the outbreak of the First World War and the countries of Europe are poised to swing into action. Join the army, muster up your courage and go to the front. What adventure! Be a hero off the pages of Walter Scott or Alexandre Dumas. But as thousands of young men quickly discovered - this is the twentieth century, complete with machine guns, poison gas, flamethrowers, mortars, tanks and aircraft. The chances of returning from the front in one piece physically and mentally are slim to none.
Yet inept governments and bumbling military leaders pressed on. What was needed in such a world gone mad was an author capable of stinging satire, creating a hero more anti-hero than hero. What was needed was Jaroslav Ha拧ek and his The Good Soldier 艩惫别箩办.
Jaroslav Ha拧ek (1883 -1923) - "Great times call for great men," was Ha拧ek's ironic comment about 艩惫别箩办.

The Czech antidote to Heller鈥檚 Catch-22 (a wonderful but overpraised anti-war satire), this anarchistic (and openly misogynistic) classic is bolder, bawdier, barmier and another B-bouncing word than Heller鈥檚 similar book thing. The premise here is that the balding and plump 艩惫别箩办 (or so he appears in the smile-raising illustrations) pretends to be an idiot to 鈥渄odge the draft,鈥� but his motivations are deeper and his brain power plumper鈥攈e remembers his officer鈥檚 orders verbatim and is able to parrot their barked orders back at them, riling his superiors simply by showing up their lamebrained hypocrisy at every opportunity. The remarkable thing about this not-always-hilarious, but relentlessly entertaining book is that Ha拧ek was an educated hobo who spent his time bumming the railroads, pulling this masterpiece out his pants while living a true on-the-edge anarchist life. The novel is punk slapstick. The comedy here spins out into shows like Bilko, Dad鈥檚 Army, MASH (asterisks omitted) and so on鈥攚ith nice and nasty satirical strafings and knifings for fans of that kind of thing. Essential for all ages 3 and up.

Una s谩tira de esas que no se olvidan. Ha拧ek ilustra muy bien a 艩惫别箩办, c贸mo se hace soldado, c贸mo "lucha" por el imperio austro-h煤ngaro y todas las an茅cdotas que le suceden a 茅ste. Cuando estaba en Praga, vi un restaurante llamado 艩惫别箩办 y me record贸 inmediatamente al libro. Situaciones absurdas, por una guerra absurda (como todas las guerras) con an茅cdotas absurdas, pero que siempre condujeron a un mismo lugar: la armada.
Lo que creo que m谩s gracia me caus贸 fue que entre m谩s soldado se sent铆a, m谩s absurdo era todo... buen menaje subliminal.
驴Recomendable? 隆Absolutamente! Leer sobre t贸picos serios y tristes en manera de s谩tira es simplemente genial.
艩惫别箩办 siempre vivir谩 en mi coraz贸n.

June 21, 2018Probably the funniest book ever written about the first world war.
This isn't really a novel, more of a series of anecdotes linked together by a few characters and whose narrative drive grows weaker as the work progresses. It was written in instalments and I have never heard tell that there was an overall plan for the book.
Much of what happens and even bizarre stories like the editor who invented new animals to write about for a regular animal magazine are drawn from Ha拧ek's own experiences.
It was written after the war and after the author's experience as a Bolshevik Commissar, and so is looking back on the vanished world of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Probably more by the accident of the author's early, alcohol related death than by design, an ongoing joke is that the Czech soldiers spend their free time fighting Hungarian soldiers, teasing Polish troops and getting round bumbling German officers all of whom are, technically at least, mutually united in the service of His Imperial Majesty Franz-Josef II.
Naturally since the story was written after the Empire had been broken up in to a number of countries, two of which in turn no longer exist, and for the explicit purpose of amusing the Czech reading public in order to earn money to spend on drink, national stereotypes as well as devotion and loyalty to the old empire are played for laughs.
The earliest section featuring Svejk developing arthritis to avoid being called up as a reservist, photographed in his wheelchair cheering on the troops leaving for the front, a spell in a lunatic asylum, getting drafted and gambled away by a drunken field chaplain, then loosing himself on his way to join his regiment but succeeding in not being tried for desertion is possibly the funniest. Although I have a grim appreciation of the cadet officer sent to a cholera hospital after having brought diarrhoea upon himself by scoffing all the chocolates he had been sent from home. The cholera hospital being understood as a nobler alternative than the embarrassing truth which pretty much sums up the tone of the work - a delight in the self-defeating idiocy of the entire endeavour.
There are at least two serious reasons for the English speaker to read this. Firstly it is part of the war that wasn't the Western front. The Western front so looms up in our historical imagination that the millions who also died and survived on the Eastern Front, on the Italian Front, fighting in the Ottoman Empire, in Africa and a few other places are easily forgotten and often overlooked. Secondly it is a comic, not a tragic view of the war. This is the other side of the war - there were some people who felt like winners. Citizens of new states that emerged out of the rubble of old empires, dusting off their shoulders and feeling relatively upbeat (at least for a few years) about their place in a new Europe.

Humbly report, Sir, but I've been reading this book called which I had not planned to read as part of my World War I project, but there you have it. It's a satire of the stupidity of war, of governments and armies and regulations, of class struggles. Of being a Czech, and nevertheless in the Austrian army. To deal with the absurdity of it all, you need an anti-hero. Which would be this guy:
艩惫别箩办.
One buffoonerous episode...
follows another...
and another...
Yes, the drawings are in the book and add to theanarchy fun.
People say this book has its roots in , but there's Shandian digressions, too, and, as a character, 艩惫别箩办 has plenty of Bartleby in him. But he's funnier, more complex, and wiser, much wiser, despite his protestations of idiocy. It's obviously credited as spawning , and yes, it's an anti-war novel. But when a few almost-enlightened characters did a double-take, a facial tic of wonder if the imbecile might just be putting them on, I thought of Chauncey Gardiner too.
'Listen, 艩惫别箩办, are you really God's prize oaf?'
'Humbly report, Sir,' 艩惫别箩办 answered solemnly, 'I am. Ever since I was little I have had bad luck like that.'
I was thinking of all these things, as I was almost done with the book, and the et ux and I decided to take a five-mile walk around a nearby lake. The path follows a roadway, one mile of which was under repair, a widening project, what they call it, which had been in progress for six months and was days from completion.
We walked as far as the section under repair. Years of parochial education have resulted in my following even the most pedantic of rules (and a good handful of the Ten Commandments, by the way), so I stopped us at the three big ROAD CLOSED signs. However, there is something about a freshly paved roadway, with brightly painted yellow and white lines. There was just some guardrail work being done. We asked some of the worker bees whether we could continue on and they couldn't think why not, and we couldn't think why not either, this being America and all. Can I have a little Woody Guthrie please!
As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me.
Thank you.
And it was indeed a beautiful ribbon of highway. I tipped my cap to the workers, who tipped their caps back at me. All was well.
At about the halfway point through the 'construction area', a white pick-up truck with a flashing yellow light on top came speeding up from behind us, screeching to a stop at our side. What he said was, 'This is a NO TRESPASSING area!' but I think what he meant was Sir, you have rubbed the bloom off my virginity.
To which the et ux offered, 'My husband said it was okay.'
The officious man in the white pick-up truck now knew which guilty party to glare at. So, I offered, 'This reminds me of the time the et ux and I were driving back from Illinois and where the highway goes in a big circle around Indianapolis the speed limit went from 75 miles per hour to 55 miles per hour, with not enough warning, if you know what I mean. So I got pulled over. The local gendarme walked up to the car, identifying himself and explaining why he was compelled to stop me, only to be interrupted by the et ux, who leaned over to say, 'I told him to slow down!' My hands on the wheel, I waited for her to continue with 'but he never listens when he's drinking' but the hand of God must have stopped her.'
'You're a smart-aleck,' said the white pick-up truck.
'Humbly report, that view has its supporters, but then there's those that vote for feeble-minded. But anyway, baszom az any谩t, baszom az istenet, baszom a Kristus M谩ri谩t, baszom az asty谩dot, baszom a vil谩got.'
'What's your name?'
'艩惫别箩办.'
'Shvayk?'
'No, 艩惫别箩办. Just like it's spelled.'
'You're not Shvayk.' (this from the et ux.)
'Well, you can't walk here.'
I decide to be quiet and let him figure this out. The sign on his door says FOLINO CONSTRUCTION and not MCCANDLESS TOWNSHIP POLICE DEPARTMENT. We are one-half mile from where we came and one-half mile from where we are going. We do not have a helicopter. The most ardent profiler could not perceive the two old people that we are as terrorists, nor is this new roadway likely on any Top 100 Infrastructure Thingies We'd Like to Blow Up List in Jihad Monthly. So, here we were, waiting for the man Mr. Folino thought enough of to let him have a spinning yellow light on top of his truck to figure this out. As 艩惫别箩办 would say, he had a well-developed talent for observation when it's already too late and some unpleasantness has happened.
We were let off with a warning.
We walked through the construction zone, and about a mile more in silence. Then the et ux said, 'You're writing a review, aren't you Mr. Shvayk?'
'Why yes I am. And it's 艩惫别箩办.'
'That book with the cartoon on the cover?'
'Somewhat famous drawings by Josef Lada, but yes.'
'What's it about?'
'It's a satire, with a seeming bumbling idiot for a protagonist who goes on one misadventure after another, but with the clear purpose, if you read it correctly, of not getting anywhere near the front lines during World War I and getting himself killed.'
'A satire?'
'Yes. A satire. Which is tricky because the people who are spoofed in a satire are pretty much guaranteed not to see the humor in it. It reminds me of the guy who would be making dinner and his wife would walk behind him making sure he closed all the drawers he opened so that crumbs wouldn't fall in. Or would stand there when he returned from taking the garbage out or walk out of the bathroom and just stare at his hands until he got the point that he should wash his hands. Or freeze in her tracks when she heard ice cubes drop into a glass fearing the end of the world or that maybe vodka would follow......'
'That's not funny.'

When a chap gets in somewhere, he has to know about everything that's going on around him, so as not to find himself in a jam suddenly - what's called a catastrophe.

鈥淎nd somewhere from the dim ages of history the truth dawned upon Europe that the morrow would obliterate the plans of today.鈥�
So more than twenty years after Czech-American Maria gave me a copy of this 1921 classic, I have finally read it and loved it. It鈥檚 a messy, episodic story of WWI; not a tale of the western front, but of the eastern front. Of course there is a long history of anti-war literature, but this story is the obvious precursor to other darkly satirical novels such as Joseph Heller鈥檚 Catch 22 and Kurt Vonnegut鈥檚 Slaughterhouse Five, all farces indicting (especially) military and political leaders.
鈥淧reparations for the slaughter of mankind have always been made in the name of God or some supposed higher being which men have devised and created in their own imagination.鈥�
The Good Soldier 艩惫别箩办 is a rural naif, patriotic, quite simple, not questioning the military leadership that berates him regularly as an idiot--鈥滱re you an idiot?!鈥� 鈥淵es, begging your pardon, sir. I am an idiot, I've been certified so!鈥�
The humor is absurd and ultimately indicts military leadership as the true idiots, in the tradition of most war literature, but 艩惫别箩办 also is clearly some combination of clueless, too--he doesn鈥檛 know who Archduke Ferdinand is at all, and in the tradition of almost all of the poor folks we send to die in wars, he has no idea what the political situation is that has led to WWI--though he also on some occasions plays the fool to his benefit:
鈥淐ould you measure the diameter of the globe?"
"No, that I couldn't, sir," answered 艩惫别箩办, "but now I'll ask you a riddle, gentlemen. There's a three-storied house with eight windows on each story. On the roof there are two gables and two chimneys. There are two tenants on each story. And now, gentlemen, I want you to tell me in what year the house porter's grandmother died?鈥�
At one point a lieutenant tells 艩惫别箩办 to "attend to the needs" of a woman he is seeing:
鈥淎nd so it came about that when the lieutenant returned from the barracks, the good soldier 艩惫别箩办 was able to inform him:
'Beg to report, sir, I carried out all the lady's wishes and treated her courteously, just as you instructed me.鈥�
鈥楾hank you, 艩惫别箩办,鈥� said the lieutenant. 鈥楢nd did she want many things done?鈥�
鈥楢bout six,鈥� 艩惫别箩办 replied." (haha, good soldier, 艩惫别箩办!)
At another point a sergeant suspects that 艩惫别箩办 may have deliberately given him a poisoned bottle of Schnapps, so he orders 艩惫别箩办 to drink it. And he does, as he always follows orders, this good soldier. The whole bottle!
Here鈥檚 another anecdote to help us understand his character:
艩惫别箩办's landlady tells him she is going to jump out the window, to which the good soldier replies: "If you want to jump out the window, go into the sitting room. I've opened the window for you. I wouldn't advise you to jump out of the kitchen window, because you'd fall on the rose bed in the garden, damage the bushes and have to pay for them. From the window in the sitting-room you'll fall beautifully on the pavement and if you're lucky you'll break your neck."
But this is the kind of humor you see early on; as 艩惫别箩办 gets closer to actual battle, the humor gets darker, more absurd (as is the case with Catch 22 and Slaughterhouse Five):
鈥淭he night spent in the detention barracks will always be one of 艩惫别箩办's fondest memories. Next door to Number 16 was a cell for solitary confinement, a murky den from which issued, during that night, the wailing of a soldier who was locked up in it and whose ribs were being systematically broken for some disciplinary offence." (The presumption is that he is lucky not to be THAT guy).
"艩惫别箩办 inspected the provost-marshal's office. The impression which it produced could scarcely be called a favorable one, especially with regard to the photographs on the walls. They were photographs of the various executions carried out by the army in Galicia and Serbia. Artistic photographs of cottages which had been burned down and of trees, the branches of which were burdened with hanging bodies. There was one particularly fine photograph from Serbia showing a whole family which had been hanged. A small boy with his father and mother. Two soldiers with bayonets were guarding the tree on which the execution had been carried out, and an officer was standing victoriously in the foreground smoking a cigarette.鈥� (You begin to see how the humor gets darker, bleaker).
艩惫别箩办 is constantly being sent to the wrong places and in the wrong direction throughout the tale, as he dutifully tries to get to the front, and is threatened with court martial for various offenses. It鈥檚 always military chaos, all the time. And as with Catch 22 and Slaughterhouse Five, it鈥檚 an ultimately devastatingly sad story, of course, considering millions were maimed and slaughtered. Oh, it's meandering, repetitive, messy, but it remains a classic satirical novel anyone would enjoy reading, as we experience yet another war (in Ukraine) 鈥渄eveloped鈥� by Our Esteemed and Unquestionably Wise Military, Political and Corporate 鈥淟eaders,鈥� though perhaps military veterans would enjoy it most, nodding knowingly and sadly at the black humor.

was an anarchist and anarchy runs through like a stick of rock. It's anti-war, anti-establishment, anti-religion and, some say, even funnier than . Apparently based his hero Yossarian on 艩惫别箩办. I read far too long ago to make a valid comparison. Oh, and Bertholt Brecht declared it the greatest book of the twentieth century. And, I can confirm, it really is quite something....
This Penguin Classics edition of contains an informative introduction by which made me want to read a biography of . Helpfully, has written one: .
Before starting I was little daunted by the book's heft. It's 752 pages and that's not including the introduction. However, I needn't have worried: it's highly readable, very addictive, full of wonderfully distinctive and pleasing cartoon-like illustrations, and I was regularly reading 50 pages at a time.
The book opens with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand where 艩惫别箩办, a Czech living in Prague, immediately realises the significance of the assassination despite some initial confusion about which Ferdinand has been killed鈥�
鈥榃hich Ferdinand, Mrs M眉ller?鈥� asked 艩惫别箩办, continuing to massage his knees. 鈥業 know two Ferdinands. One of them does jobs for Prusa the chemist, and one day he drank a bottle of hair oil by mistake; and then there鈥檚 Ferdinand Kokoska who goes round collecting manure. They wouldn鈥檛 be any great loss, either of 鈥榚m.鈥� 鈥楴o, it鈥檚 the Archduke Ferdinand, the one from Konopiste, you know, the fat, pious one.鈥�
is chock full of subversive humour and peppered with mad major-generals, hard-drinking priests, lecherous officers, all of whom operate in an absurd, imperialist world. combines amusing wordplay and piercing satire in this very funny depiction of the futility of war. I suspect this book is also an accurate depiction of the moral bankruptcy of the Austro-Hungarian empire.
艩惫别箩办 is a hapless, apparently guileless everyman who gets embroiled in the state鈥檚 bureaucratic machinery and yet, through his feigned stupidity, always manages to subvert those in authority to emerge unscathed whilst leaving chaos in his wake. Peter Sellers would have made a perfect screen version of 艩惫别箩办 and, coincidentally, Sellers used quotes from 艩惫别箩办 in his film 'A Shot in the Dark鈥�.
艩惫别箩办 is constantly reducing officers to despair with his homely analogies and rambling anecdotes, not least the long suffering Lieutenant Luk谩拧 who develops something of a love-hate relationship with 艩惫别箩办. 艩惫别箩办's idiocy however is, perhaps, his way of dealing with an insane world fighting an insane war. It is all a ploy. By constantly becoming embroiled in tine consuming investigations about his conduct, so his arrival at the front line is further delayed. He is also a prankster whose genius is that he subverts the authoritarian world as much for its own sake as for any other reason. His humour and apparent imbecility rendering him indestructible. No wonder he's such an enduring character.
鈥檚 illustrations are one of the many delights of this book. (1887-1957) was a Czech painter and writer, however he is best known for illustrating this book. His cartoons are very simple but add another level of enjoyment to the book. He really captures the essence of 艩惫别箩办鈥檚 simple charm and also the self-importance of some of the more senior officers.
died having completed four of the six proposed books, which - had he lived to finish it - would have made this tome even heftier, and therein lies my only criticism, due to its episodic structure can occasionally be too rambling and repetitive however, read on a few pages, and there's another amusing scene to enjoy.
This is an account of World War One far removed from heroism and honour, and which focuses more on idiotic, patriotic officers, drunk priests, skiving, conniving, brutality, boozing, death and the harsh reality of a moribund, unpopular Empire for those trying to survive at the bottom of the heap. is a book which deserves to be more celebrated and widely read (outside the Czech republic where it is considered a classic). humorously shines an illuminating light on the experience of ordinary people whilst seismic historical events negatively impact their lives and so consequently inspires justifiable suspicion of patriotism, bureaucratic careerism and authoritarianism. All such nonsense is best mocked. 's truths are perhaps more relevant than ever.

So many composers have translated stories into music. I was thinking that if this story could be translated into an operetta, or even a cabaret, it would become a medley of innocence, honesty, madness, brutality and a world happily going mad, while we, the audience, laugh ourselves to death, merrily tapping our feet to the rhythm of the orchestra.
I had the same feeling and reaction when I read Captain Corelli's Mandolin by Louis de Berniers. And then later on with 100-year-old Man Who Climbed Out The Window And Disappeared鈥� by Jonas Jonasson.
The absurdity makes you laugh, while the situation makes you cringe. To top it off, the story is based on true events, as related by the author after WWI.
The author introduced his main character in the preface as the hero of an epoch. An ordinary modest unrecognized man in the streets of Prague, who did more for the war than men such as Napoleon. His heroism even overshadowed Alexander The Great. If you would ask his name, he would answer in simple and modest tone: "I am Svejk."
He was the talk of all citizens in the Kingdom of Bohemia when they were still under Austrian rule. His glory will never pass away.
Svejk, the Czech, burst onto the scene when he decided to join the Austrian Hungarian Army. But like a more contemporary Mr. Bean, he had the knack to turn any situation into something bizarrely, and often annoyingly, funny. He will be called a prize lunatic, a thorough-paced rascal, double-dyed blithering idiot, a prize ass, a thickheaded booby, lousy skunk, a blithering jackass, a ghastly idiot, a God-forsaken idiot, a freak of nature, a fat-headed lout, a devil of nuisance, a brainless booby, a degenerate. He was officially diagnosed as feeble-minded from his previous stint in the army, and developed arthritis in the meantime. Yet, it did not hamper his desire to be a loyal soldier and report for service when the First World War broke out.
Svjek had the gift of the gab to talk himself into, and then out of trouble, with a vast trove of memories he used in confirming his good-natured, kindness. He had a touching air of gentleness with which he drove people to acts of cruelty or kindness against him. But with his optimistic psyche firmly in place, he always experienced these acts as superb hospitality or professional conduct of some kind.
If historical fiction is your religion, and the genre's authors your sect, this unique book, 1st published in 1921, is a must-read. Your faith might be woefully challenged by the sheer brilliance of combining comedy with tragedy to create this kind of satirical wonder-work or masterpiece. Venturesome, boundary-pushing elements elevate this book into the realm of classic excellence, which sadly, are often ignored and replaced by the mundane, the poor airborne nothingness, being pushed to the top by publishers. This book is a once in a lifetime experience.
It is indeed an early introduction to the literature of the postmodernism in which everything is questioned, ridiculed, protested. In this case it is the futility of war, the almost blasphemous rebellion against religious hypocrisy, and the tragedy of an over-sized bureaucracy. Just about everything is made fun of.
It was a difficult read due to the brutality and cruelty portrayed in The Good Soldier Svjek. For sensitive readers the metatheatrical irreverence with which religion is handled might be experienced as bad-taste humor. However, the cheerful irony, and sharp satire pulled me through. I just realized how unique this book was.
There's no novel structure to the tale. It is more like a combination of anecdotes, or events, being tied together by a few continuous characters, while others disappeared along the way. The ending was blunt. However, the overall idea and message in this epoch is more important, and therefor no stars are lost.
RECOMMENDED.

Then an orderly arrived with a packet containing a communication to notify the Chaplain that on the next day the administration of extreme unction at the hospital would be attended by the "Society of Genteel Ladies for the Religious Training of Soldiers." This society consisted of hysterical old women and it supplied the soldiers in hospital with images of saints and tales about the Catholic warrior who dies for his Emperor. On the cover of the book containing these tales was a coloured picture, representing a battlefield. Corpses of men and horses, overturned munition wagons and cannon with the limber in the air, were scattered about on all sides. On the horizon a village was burning and shrapnel was bursting, while in the foreground lay a dying soldier, with his leg torn off, and above him an angel descended with a wreath bearing this inscription on a piece of ribbon: "This day thou shalt be with Me in paradise." And the dying soldier smiled blissfully, as if they were bringing him ice cream.It is certainly not a book for everyone, since it is also written in the literary idiom of the 1920s and requires patience to venture through. But it is one of those gems, like The Story of Ebenezer Le Page by G.B. Edwards, that demands a prominent position on the 'favorite' shelves for many readers.

The first time I read this book, as a teenager, I could not see the point. So I put it down without finishing it. Now I see it as one of the great books. The character of Svejk is straight out of folklore. He is the foolish man who somehow kills the giant, gets the princess and claims the gold. Except that here is no fairy tale, but a story of war and a story of bureaucrats and officialdom.
Specifically, we at first witness Svejk, a bumbling lower class oaf who has been recruited into the army, and who, in consequence, daily encounters a sequence of bumbling upper class oafs, his officers. These latter individuals are running a totally disastrous war, the Great War for Civilization, which is destroying their own country of Austria Hungary.
Svejk, however, is not moderately stupid. He is very very stupid. Indeed, he is so very stupid that he somehow manages to keep himself out of trouble and out of danger. Gradually, we wonder whether Svejk might actually be quite a clever man, who knows how to handle himself in the face of arbitrary power, bureaucracy and bone-headed idiocy. Finally, because the war's stupidity is actually quite a serious matter, we make another discovery. By an imperceptible transmogrification, Svejk ceases even to appear to the reader as a fool. Instead, we discover him to be a quiet, intelligent hero, the model, indeed for the Czechoslovak hero who emerged from the old Empire to found a new society.

鈥淟isten, 艩惫别箩办, are you really God鈥檚 prize oaf?鈥�
鈥淗umbly report, sir,鈥� 艩惫别箩办 answered solemnly. 鈥淚 am!鈥�
The good soldier 艩惫别箩办 repeats this answer, in one form or another, quite a lot over the course of 892 pages of being frequently grilled by various authorities under the Austro-Hungarian Empire in World War One. You, the reader, will be entirely at liberty to ascertain the truth of the matter!
This was a re-read for me after many years. I remember as a young person being utterly amazed at it, as I鈥檇 never come across war satire of this kind before. I found the book less comic this time, and also a touch tedious as it went on, as 艩惫别箩办 (of whom the author admits he is very fond) relates innumerable, ever more far-fetched, stories, to illustrate a particular aspect of human behaviour, while generally sitting in one of a long succession of prisons, military transports, or mental asylums. I am still amazed, though, that Ha拧ek could, seemingly effortlessly, come out with tale upon entertaining tale of unfortunate innocents at the mercy of the civil or military administration, or cunning malefactors who come justly to a sticky end, or unhinged military officials sabotaging their own war . . . having said all that, I attribute any intermittent tediousness I found in the narration to the novel being already almost a hundred years old. At the time of writing, Ha拧ek鈥檚 work would have been innovatory, revolutionary, shocking beyond anything we might experience from it today, in our age of enlightened cynicism about 鈥渨ar and war鈥檚 alarms鈥� (WB Yeats), where we are accustomed to more sophisticated satire. I found myself thinking that it was just as well the book was published posthumously or Ha拧ek might have found himself treated just as his hero was.
This book contains no grandiose criticism but relies on incontestable and concrete detail. Of necessity, it鈥檚 earthy stuff. As the author points out in the epilogue to Part 1,鈥滲ehind the Lines鈥�,
鈥淟ife is no finishing school for young ladies.鈥�
Part Two is entitled, 鈥淎t the Front鈥�, and the language and the incidents are scatological and often bawdy. Ha拧ek defends himself thus:
鈥淚t was once said, and very rightly, that a man who is well brought-up may read anything. The only people who boggle at what is perfectly natural are those who are the worst swine and the finest experts in filth. In their utterly contemptible pseudo-morality they ignore the contents and madly attack individual words . . . beneath this camouflage these drawing-room lions indulge in the worst vices and excesses.鈥�
Ha拧ek described conditions for the soldiers and the inefficiency of the army command from personal experience serving on the Eastern Front, although he died without writing his intended third volume, 鈥渋n Captivity鈥� which would also have reflected his actual experience (of being a prisoner of war of the Russians). Thanks to Ian鈥檚 review of 鈥淭he Snows of Yesteryear鈥� and Beata鈥檚 of 鈥淲o艂y艅 zdradzony鈥� (鈥淰olhynia betrayed鈥� according to Google Translate), I have more of an idea of the region of Galicia through which 艩惫别箩办 passes as Part Two ends.
I woke one morning from a 艩惫别箩办-related dream (no, really!) wondering how I could sum up this novel in the style of Ha拧ek. Just how easy was it to make up tales where 艩惫别箩办鈥檚 point is couched in a ton or so of irrelevant anecdotal detail? I found that in a few minutes I wrote about 500 words of my own 艩惫别箩办 tale (don鈥檛 worry, I won鈥檛 include it all here!) but the image I had was of a man who, wandering through the halls of the city treasury, came upon ancient, dusty chests, which no one had ever opened or been remotely interested in. This man opened them, and found that they were full of human truths, accumulated over centuries. Perhaps the events they described had not actually taken place but their import was true. The man read them and realised their value to humanity. The man heaped these truths upon himself as if they were coats of ermine, and went out into the street, accosting all whom he met with wise words from the papers in the chests. Eventually he was brought before the city authorities. They listened carefully to his tales of truth hidden away in the cellars of the Treasury. Then they conferred briefly with each other, nodding their sage heads, and had the man thrown into the river as a danger to society.

鈥淗umbly report, sir,鈥� 艩惫别箩办 answered solemnly. 鈥淚 am!鈥�
The good soldier 艩惫别箩办 repeats this answer, in one form or another, quite a lot over the course of 892 pages of being frequently grilled by various authorities under the Austro-Hungarian Empire in World War One. You, the reader, will be entirely at liberty to ascertain the truth of the matter!
This was a re-read for me after many years. I remember as a young person being utterly amazed at it, as I鈥檇 never come across war satire of this kind before. I found the book less comic this time, and also a touch tedious as it went on, as 艩惫别箩办 (of whom the author admits he is very fond) relates innumerable, ever more far-fetched, stories, to illustrate a particular aspect of human behaviour, while generally sitting in one of a long succession of prisons, military transports, or mental asylums. I am still amazed, though, that Ha拧ek could, seemingly effortlessly, come out with tale upon entertaining tale of unfortunate innocents at the mercy of the civil or military administration, or cunning malefactors who come justly to a sticky end, or unhinged military officials sabotaging their own war . . . having said all that, I attribute any intermittent tediousness I found in the narration to the novel being already almost a hundred years old. At the time of writing, Ha拧ek鈥檚 work would have been innovatory, revolutionary, shocking beyond anything we might experience from it today, in our age of enlightened cynicism about 鈥渨ar and war鈥檚 alarms鈥� (WB Yeats), where we are accustomed to more sophisticated satire. I found myself thinking that it was just as well the book was published posthumously or Ha拧ek might have found himself treated just as his hero was.
This book contains no grandiose criticism but relies on incontestable and concrete detail. Of necessity, it鈥檚 earthy stuff. As the author points out in the epilogue to Part 1,鈥滲ehind the Lines鈥�,
鈥淟ife is no finishing school for young ladies.鈥�
Part Two is entitled, 鈥淎t the Front鈥�, and the language and the incidents are scatological and often bawdy. Ha拧ek defends himself thus:
鈥淚t was once said, and very rightly, that a man who is well brought-up may read anything. The only people who boggle at what is perfectly natural are those who are the worst swine and the finest experts in filth. In their utterly contemptible pseudo-morality they ignore the contents and madly attack individual words . . . beneath this camouflage these drawing-room lions indulge in the worst vices and excesses.鈥�
Ha拧ek described conditions for the soldiers and the inefficiency of the army command from personal experience serving on the Eastern Front, although he died without writing his intended third volume, 鈥渋n Captivity鈥� which would also have reflected his actual experience (of being a prisoner of war of the Russians). Thanks to Ian鈥檚 review of 鈥淭he Snows of Yesteryear鈥� and Beata鈥檚 of 鈥淲o艂y艅 zdradzony鈥� (鈥淰olhynia betrayed鈥� according to Google Translate), I have more of an idea of the region of Galicia through which 艩惫别箩办 passes as Part Two ends.

I remember reading this (probably an unbridged version) when I was a pre-teen and laughing with tears. I was happy years later to find the paperback in English this time. I have the bad habit of neglecting the books I own in favour of the many library books I borrow.
Upon noticing the audiobook on a library app, I thought I should try it again.
I can't say I paid close attention throughout, the narrator didn't exactly appeal to me that much not to mention there were glitches and paragraphs were repeated occasionally, a first for this audiobook consumer.
While I didn't laugh with tears, this was nevertheless amusing and quite the feat for its time.
Satire and war can be good battle companions.

The Czech military banned this novel ('filth'); the Nazis burned every copy of it they could find. Joseph Heller later said if not for Svejk there would have been no Catch-22.
I should add that as well as one of the funniest novels ever written, it鈥檚 also one of the rudest. It savages aristos, army brass, organised religion and idiot bosses without mercy.
But you wouldn鈥檛 want to read THAT, now, would you...?

脌 l'entr茅e dans la Grande Guerre, l'Empire d'Autriche-Hongrie est une vaste blague que le bonhomme Chv茅茂k est le seul 脿 prendre au s茅rieux, l'innocent. C'est tout son malheur.
Charlie Chaplin, Les Temps Modernes (1936)
1. UNE SATIRE 脌 L'HUMOUR F脡ROCE
Qu'on l'interroge, qu'on le menace, qu'on le rudoie, en toute candeur, le bavard Chv茅茂k disserte, compare et rapporte tout 脿 des exemples 脿 lui : des potins ou la premi猫re rumeur qu'il attrape. Son bon sens relativise tout, nivelle tout. En les mettant face 脿 leur absurdit茅, il d茅monte toute autorit茅, toute convention de la guerre. Comme un miroir qui ne r茅fl茅chirait que leurs ridicules les plus 茅normes.
2. UNE CHARGE TERRIBLE CONTRE LA RELIGION D'脡TAT ET LA GUERRE :
Il y a des chapitres vraiment impayables dans cette histoire :) J'ai une pens茅e pour les dialogues 茅piques entre l'aum么nier arsouille et Chv茅茂k l'innocent, devenu son aide... :)
C'est ensuite la messe qui est sans arr锚t tourn茅e en ridicule. Un jour que l'aum么nier Katz a perdu plusieurs pi猫ces de son mobilier liturgique (aux cartes ?), Chv茅茂k et lui improvisent des objets de culte : une coupe de sport fera bien l'affaire pour le calice, et puis l'huile de ch猫nevis d'un magasin de peinture pour l'huile b茅nite. Pour achever de confondre l'auditoire, la messe se fait 脿 coups de sifflements pour que Chv茅茂k suive bien son r么le d'enfant de ch艙ur, en rythme.
La religion institu茅e, c'est aussi ce qui encadre et cautionne la guerre, en faisant une mission du chr茅tien. Jaroslav Ha拧ek ne m芒che pas ses mots devant une religion d'脡tat servile et pr锚te 脿 tous les accommodements :
3. CHV脡脧K L'INNOCENT : LA SUBVERSION INCARN脡E OU L'IMAGE DE LA R脡SISTANCE NON-VIOLENTE ?
Rus茅 na茂f, rou茅 de bonne foi ('pour vous faire plaisir', dit-il 脿 l'aum么nier Katz et au lieutenant Lucas), Josef Chv茅茂k est un m茅lange admirable de bon sens et d'茅normit茅s. Par un air d茅gag茅 et des paroles franches, qui prennent l'air d'insinuations ironiques, il tourne 脿 la blague toutes les conventions qui ont cours sous l'Autriche-Hongrie pendant la Grande Guerre.
Bavard candide, pour toutes les formes d'autorit茅, il est impertinent et intol茅rable sans chercher 脿 l'锚tre. Bref, il parle des Habits neufs de l'empereur avec une tranquillit茅, un d茅gagement et une candeur superbes.

4. POUR LE PLAISIR, UN EXTRAIT DU CHAPITRE DANS L'ASILE DE FOUS
5. UN MOT SUR L'AUTEUR :
Jaroslav Ha拧ek a lui-m锚me 茅t茅 incorpor茅 dans l'arm茅e autrichienne en 1915. Il est pris par les Russes, puis 脿 leur capitulation, il passe dans une organisation pour l'ind茅pendance tch猫que.
Marchand de chiens, journaliste anarchiste, fondateur du 'Parti du lent progr猫s dans les limites de la loi' et 茅crivain errant, son 艙uvre n'a pas re莽u une reconnaissance unanime de son vivant et ce n'est que tr猫s r茅cemment que cette histoire a 茅t茅 reconnue 脿 sa juste importance.
DES ID脡ES DE LECTURES ASSEZ PROCHES DANS LE TON:
Charlie Chaplin, Les Temps Modernes (1936)
'鈥� Je m鈥檈n vais faire la guerre, r茅pondit Chv茅茂k d鈥檜ne voix s茅pulcrale, l鈥橝utriche est dans un p茅trin abominable. (...) et voil脿 pourquoi l鈥橢mpereur m鈥檃ppelle sous le drapeau.
J鈥檃i lu hier dans les journaux que de sombres nu茅es s鈥檃massaient 脿 l鈥檋orizon de notre ch猫re Autriche-Hongrie.
鈥� Mais puisque vous ne pouvez pas bouger, M鈥檚ieur le patron ?
鈥� C鈥檈st pas un pr茅texte pour manquer 脿 son devoir, M鈥檃me Muller. Je me ferai pousser en petite voiture. Vous connaissez le confiseur du coin de notre rue? Eh bien, il en a, un petit truc comme 莽a. Il y a quelques ann茅es, il s鈥檈n servait pour faire prendre le frais 脿 son grand-p猫re. Vous irez le voir de ma part, et vous lui demanderez de me pr锚ter sa voiture, et vous me roulerez devant ces messieurs.
(...)
'Une vieille femme poussait devant elle un ancien triporteur occup茅 par un homme qui, coiff茅 d鈥檜ne casquette militaire qu鈥檕rnait 芦 le petit Fran莽ois 禄, brillant de mille feux, agitait fr茅n茅tiquement une paire de b茅quilles. Ses b茅quilles toujours en bataille, l鈥檋omme criait 脿 tue-t锚te par les rues de Prague: 鈥撁€ Belgrade! 脌 Belgrade! Sa voiturette 茅tait suivie par une foule de badauds dont le nombre augmentait sans cesse.
En route, Chv茅茂k constatait que les agents post茅s 脿 divers carrefours lui faisaient le salut militaire.' - p.107-112
1. UNE SATIRE 脌 L'HUMOUR F脡ROCE
Qu'on l'interroge, qu'on le menace, qu'on le rudoie, en toute candeur, le bavard Chv茅茂k disserte, compare et rapporte tout 脿 des exemples 脿 lui : des potins ou la premi猫re rumeur qu'il attrape. Son bon sens relativise tout, nivelle tout. En les mettant face 脿 leur absurdit茅, il d茅monte toute autorit茅, toute convention de la guerre. Comme un miroir qui ne r茅fl茅chirait que leurs ridicules les plus 茅normes.
'鈥� 脡coutez, Chv茅茂k, j鈥檃vais envie de vous d茅f茅rer devant le conseil de guerre, mais je vois bien que vous seriez acquitt茅, parce que ces messieurs n鈥檕nt encore jamais eu affaire 脿 un cr茅tin de votre envergure. Regardez-vous bien l脿 dans la glace, n鈥櫭猼es-vous pas d茅go没t茅 de vous-m锚me devant un visage aussi stupide que 莽a ? Vous 锚tes le ph茅nom猫ne naturel le plus renversant que j鈥檃ie jamais vu. Allons, Chv茅茂k, mais dites la v茅rit茅: est-ce que votre t锚te, elle vous pla卯t ?
鈥� Je vous d茅clare avec ob茅issance, mon lieutenant, qu鈥檈lle ne me pla卯t pas du tout : elle a l鈥檃ir dans cette glace d鈥檜ne boule pointue. 脟a ne doit pas 锚tre une glace biseaut茅e. Une fois, ils avaient mis dans la devanture du marchand de th茅 Stanek une glace convexe et quand on s鈥檡 regardait on avait envie de vomir. On y avait la bouche de travers, la t锚te ressemblait 脿 une poubelle, on avait le ventre d鈥檜n chanoine apr猫s une beuverie en r猫gle, bref, on se voyait d茅figur茅 脿 se suicider sur place. Une fois, le gouverneur est pass茅 par cette rue, s鈥檈st regard茅 dans cette glace et le magasin a 茅t茅 oblig茅 d鈥檈nlever la glace.' - p.360
2. UNE CHARGE TERRIBLE CONTRE LA RELIGION D'脡TAT ET LA GUERRE :
'Le sermon et la messe n鈥櫭﹖aient pour eux qu鈥檜n moyen de se soustraire 脿 l鈥檈nnui de la prison. Ce qui les attirait, c鈥櫭﹖ait, non pas la ferveur des sentiments religieux, mais bien l鈥檈spoir de trouver, sur le chemin de la chapelle, des 芦 m茅gots 禄 sem茅s dans les corridors. Le bon Dieu avait moins de charme qu鈥檜n bout de cigarette ou de cigare tra卯nant dans la poussi猫re.
Mais la principale attraction 茅tait le sermon. Quelle pure joie il provoquait ! Le feldkurat Otto Katz 茅tait le plus charmant eccl茅siastique du monde. Ses sermons se distinguaient par une 茅loquence 脿 la fois persuasive et propre 脿 susciter chez les d茅tenus une hilarit茅 interminable. Il 茅tait vraiment beau 脿 entendre quand il s鈥櫭﹖endait sur la mis茅ricorde infinie de Dieu, quand il s鈥櫭﹙ertuait 脿 relever le niveau moral des prisonniers, 芦 victimes de toutes les corruptions 禄, et quand il les r茅confortait dans leur abjection. Il 茅tait vraiment beau 脿 entendre, du haut de la chaire ou de l鈥檃utel, faisant pleuvoir sur ses fid猫les des injures de toute sorte et des vitup茅rations vari茅es. Enfin, il n鈥櫭﹖ait pas moins beau 脿 entendre quand il chantait Ite missa est, et apr猫s avoir dit sa messe d鈥檜ne fa莽on tout 脿 fait curieuse et originale, en brouillant et bousculant les parties de la messe; quand il avait trop bu, il inventait m锚me des pri猫res et une messe in茅dites, tout un rituel 脿 lui.' - p.151
'La messe, nouveau tour de force du feldkurat, fut suivie avec une grande attention par les prisonniers qui ne cachaient pas leur go没t pour l鈥檕fficiant. L鈥檜n d鈥檈ux paria m锚me sa portion de pain contre deux gifles que le feldkurat allait faire tomber le Saint-Sacrement par terre. Il gagna son pari.
Il n鈥檡 avait pas de place dans ces 芒mes pour le mysticisme des croyants ou la pi茅t茅 des catholiques convaincus. Ils 茅prouvaient un sentiment analogue 脿 celui qu鈥檕n 茅prouve au th茅芒tre quand on ne conna卯t pas le contenu de lapi猫ce et qu鈥檕n suit avec patience les p茅rip茅ties de l鈥檃ction. Les prisonniers se plong猫rent avec d茅lices dans le spectacle que leur offraient les 茅volutions du feldkurat.
Ils n鈥檃vaient d鈥檡eux que pour la beaut茅 de la chasuble qu鈥檃vait endoss茅e 脿 rebours le feldkurat et, pleins d鈥檃ttention, suivaient avec ferveur toutce qui se passait 脿 l鈥檃utel.' - p.164
Il y a des chapitres vraiment impayables dans cette histoire :) J'ai une pens茅e pour les dialogues 茅piques entre l'aum么nier arsouille et Chv茅茂k l'innocent, devenu son aide... :)
'鈥� C鈥檈st encore le type de tout 脿 l鈥檋eure, monsieur l鈥檃um么nier. Je l鈥檃i enferm茅 dans la baignoire pour que nous ayons le temps de d卯ner tranquillement.
鈥� Vous n鈥檃gissez pas bien, Chv茅茂k; qui re莽oit un h么te re莽oit Dieu. Aux temps anciens les seigneurs admettaient 脿 leur table des bouffons monstrueux pour les divertir 脿 leur festin. Apportez le type pour qu鈥檌l soit notre bouffon.' - p.261
C'est ensuite la messe qui est sans arr锚t tourn茅e en ridicule. Un jour que l'aum么nier Katz a perdu plusieurs pi猫ces de son mobilier liturgique (aux cartes ?), Chv茅茂k et lui improvisent des objets de culte : une coupe de sport fera bien l'affaire pour le calice, et puis l'huile de ch猫nevis d'un magasin de peinture pour l'huile b茅nite. Pour achever de confondre l'auditoire, la messe se fait 脿 coups de sifflements pour que Chv茅茂k suive bien son r么le d'enfant de ch艙ur, en rythme.
La religion institu茅e, c'est aussi ce qui encadre et cautionne la guerre, en faisant une mission du chr茅tien. Jaroslav Ha拧ek ne m芒che pas ses mots devant une religion d'脡tat servile et pr锚te 脿 tous les accommodements :
'C鈥檈st toujours au nom d鈥檜ne divinit茅 bienfaisante, sortie de l鈥檌magination des hommes, que se pr茅pare le massacre de la pauvre humanit茅.
Avant de couper le cou 脿 un prisonnier de guerre, les Ph茅niciens c茅l茅braient un service divin assez semblable 脿 celui que c茅l茅braient encore leurs descendants quelques milliers d鈥檃nn茅es plus tard avant d鈥檃ller se battre.
Les anthropophages des 卯les de la Guin茅e et de la Polyn茅sie, avant de manger dans un festin solennel leurs prisonniers de guerre ou les gens qui les incommodent 鈥� missionnaires, explorateurs, n茅gociants ou simples curieux 鈥搒acrifient 脿 leurs dieux selon des rites divers. Notre civilisation ne s鈥檌ntroduisant chez eux qu鈥檃u ralenti, ils ne rev锚tent point de chasubles, mais ornent leurs reins de plumes aux couleurs 茅clatantes.' - p.219
'En Europe, les gens marchaient comme du b茅tail aux abattoirs o霉 les conduisaient 鈥� dignes auxiliaires des empereurs bouchers, des rois et des g茅n茅raux, 鈥� les pr锚tres de toutes les religions, qui leur donnaient leur b茅n茅diction et leur faisaient jurer que 芦 sur terre, sur mer, dans les airs, etc 禄.
Les messes du camp avaient toujours lieu en deux occasions sp茅ciales: avant le d茅part des soldats pour le front, et, au front m锚me avant la tuerie. Je me rappelle qu鈥檃u front, 脿 une de ces messes, un a茅roplane ennemi jeta une bombe juste sur l鈥檃um么nier, dont il ne subsista que des loques sanglantes.
Il passa aussit么t martyr, tandis que les a茅roplanes autrichiens faisaient de leur mieux pour procurer cette m锚me b茅atitude immortelle 脿 des aum么niers de l鈥檃utre c么t茅 du front.' - p.221
3. CHV脡脧K L'INNOCENT : LA SUBVERSION INCARN脡E OU L'IMAGE DE LA R脡SISTANCE NON-VIOLENTE ?
Rus茅 na茂f, rou茅 de bonne foi ('pour vous faire plaisir', dit-il 脿 l'aum么nier Katz et au lieutenant Lucas), Josef Chv茅茂k est un m茅lange admirable de bon sens et d'茅normit茅s. Par un air d茅gag茅 et des paroles franches, qui prennent l'air d'insinuations ironiques, il tourne 脿 la blague toutes les conventions qui ont cours sous l'Autriche-Hongrie pendant la Grande Guerre.
'鈥� Ne me m茅nage pas, dit-il au soldat qui lui administrait le clyst猫re; rappelle-toi ton serment. Si ton p猫re ou ton fr猫re 茅taient 脿 ma place, tu serais oblig茅 de leur foutre ton clyst猫re la m锚me chose. Mets-toi bien dans la t锚te que c鈥檈st de clyst猫res comme celui-l脿 que d茅pend le salut de l鈥橝utriche, et tu verras, nous aurons la victoire.' - p.129
Bavard candide, pour toutes les formes d'autorit茅, il est impertinent et intol茅rable sans chercher 脿 l'锚tre. Bref, il parle des Habits neufs de l'empereur avec une tranquillit茅, un d茅gagement et une candeur superbes.
( ).
'Les yeux innocents et candides de Chv茅茂k ne d茅sarmaient pas de leur douceur et de leur tendresse et refl茅taient la s茅r茅nit茅 de l鈥檋omme qui estimait que tout 茅tait pour le mieux, que rien d鈥檈xtraordinaire ne s鈥櫭﹖ait pass茅 et que tout ce qui avait pu se passer 茅tait d鈥檃illeurs pour le mieux, car il faut tout de m锚me bien qu鈥檌l se passe quelque chose de temps en temps.' - p.356
4. POUR LE PLAISIR, UN EXTRAIT DU CHAPITRE DANS L'ASILE DE FOUS
'鈥� S茅rieusement, je ne comprendrai jamais pourquoi les fous se f芒chent d鈥櫭猼re si bien plac茅s. C鈥檈st une maison o霉 on peut se promener tout nu, hurler comme un chacal, 锚tre furieux 脿 discr茅tion et mordre autant qu鈥檕n veut et tout ce qu鈥檕n veut. Si on osait se conduire comme 莽a dans la rue, tout le monde serait affol茅, mais, l脿-bas, rien de plus naturel. Il y a l脿-dedans une telle libert茅 que les socialistes n鈥檕nt jamais os茅 r锚ver rien d鈥檃ussi beau. On peut s鈥檡 faire passer pour le Bon Dieu, pour la Sainte-Vierge, pour le pape ou pour le roi d鈥橝ngleterre, ou bien pour un empereur quelconque, ou encore pour saint Venceslas. Tout de m锚me, le type qui la faisait 脿 la saint Venceslas tra卯nait tout le temps, nu et gigotant au cabanon. Il y avait l脿 aussi un type qui criait tout le temps qu鈥檌l 茅tait archev锚que, mais celui-l脿 ne faisait que bouffer et, sauf votre respect, encore quelque chose, vous savez bien 脿 quoi 莽a peut rimer, et tout 莽a sans se g锚ner. Il y en avait un autre qui se faisait passer pour saint Cyrille et saint M茅thode 脿 la fois, pour avoir droit 脿 deux portions 脿 chaque repas. Un autre monsieur pr茅tendait 锚tre enceint, et il invitait tout le monde 脿 venir au bapt锚me. (...) Il y avait aussi un type qui ne quittait pas la camisole de force qu鈥檕n lui passait pour l鈥檈mp锚cher de calculer la fin du monde. (...) et un autre qui faisait tous ses efforts pour me persuader qu鈥櫭� l鈥檌nt茅rieur du globe terrestre il y en avait encore un autre, un peu plus petit que celui qui lui servait d鈥檈nveloppe. Tout le monde 茅tait libre de dire ce qu鈥檌l avait envie de dire, tout ce qui lui passait par la t锚te. On se serait cru au Parlement. Tr猫s souvent, on s鈥檡 racontait des contes de f茅es et on finissait par se battre quand une princesse avait tourn茅 mal. Le fou leplus dangereux que j鈥檡 aie connu, c鈥櫭﹖ait un type qui se faisait passer pour le volume XVI du 芦 Dictionnaire Otto 禄. Celui-l脿 priait ses copains de l鈥檕uvrir et de chercher ce que le Dictionnaire disait au mot 芦 Ouvri猫re en cartonnage 禄, sans quoi il serait perdu. Et il n鈥檡 avait que la camisole de force qui le mettait 脿 l鈥檃ise. Alors, il 茅tait content et disait que ce n鈥櫭﹖ait pas trop t么t pour 锚tre mis enfin sous presse, et il exigeait une reliure moderne.' - p.70-71
5. UN MOT SUR L'AUTEUR :
Jaroslav Ha拧ek a lui-m锚me 茅t茅 incorpor茅 dans l'arm茅e autrichienne en 1915. Il est pris par les Russes, puis 脿 leur capitulation, il passe dans une organisation pour l'ind茅pendance tch猫que.
Marchand de chiens, journaliste anarchiste, fondateur du 'Parti du lent progr猫s dans les limites de la loi' et 茅crivain errant, son 艙uvre n'a pas re莽u une reconnaissance unanime de son vivant et ce n'est que tr猫s r茅cemment que cette histoire a 茅t茅 reconnue 脿 sa juste importance.

I bought this in 1980 as a treat for finishing my A levels. I was attracted by the garish bright yellow cover and the cartoonish character on the front.
It took me into a new world, portraying the kaleidoscope of the Austo Hungarian empire through the lense of the only loyal Czech private in the whole army. Sadly Svejk is a hopeless idiot, and his part in the war is of no use to Franz Joseph.
A rambling, irreverent, irreligious and bawdy mess of a book - the author wrote the book in installments for a newspaper so had every incentive to spin it out - nontheless it is a glorious paean to the pointlessness of war. The various nationalities of the AH Empire spent more time fighting each other than they ever did the Russians.
According to Wikipedia this was also partly the inspiration for Catch 22. God bless you Mr Hasek.
If you are in Prague one of the inns mentioned in the book is still there - U Kalicha in Na Bojisti st. A bit touristy but worth a visit, and good for a beer. Been there, got the beer mat.
Jaroslav Hasek was a bit of a character too. If you get the chance read The Bad Bohemian by Cecil Parrott, which sets out the life of this anarchistic rabble rouser. In my favourite passage, he helped set up a political party called the Party for Moderate Progress Within the Bounds of The Law, partly as a surreal response to onerous political restrictions, but also partly for cheap beer. We need more of this in our world.

The Good Soldier 艩惫别箩办 is 752 pages long and yet on not a single one was I able to keep a straight face. A heartwarming mixture of colourful characters, hilarious satire and black humour makes for a fantastic masterpiece on the total futility of World War One. The only downside to the book which I can come up with is that fate didn't permit Jaroslav Ha拧ek to finish it. We can only imagine how many other gifts Ha拧ek could have given us. Rereading the book for the second time only reaffirmed for me its place among my favourite books of all time.
