Inventing the Enemy

Covers various topics on which the author has written and lectured over the years, from the discussion of ideas that have inspired his novels - exploring lost islands, mythical realms, and the medieval world in the process - to a disquisition on the theme that runs through his novel, "The Prague Cemetery", that every country needs an enemy.
