The Good Soldier Svejk

'Listen, Å vejk, are you really God's prize oaf?' 'Humbly report, sir,' Å vejk answered solemnly. 'I am!' Drunkard, malingerer, oaf and possible genius - the story of Czech soldier Svejk and his misadventures in the First World War is one of the most hilarious and subversive satires on war ever written. A new series of twenty distinctive, unforgettable Penguin Classics in a beautiful new design and pocket-sized format, with coloured jackets echoing Penguin's original covers.
