Argo Publishing: State of weightlessness

Weightless state is another collection of humorous prose from the pen of Woody Allen. And like the books Settle your accounts, Without feathers, Side effects a Pure anarchy offers and Weightless state what we have come to expect from Woody Allen's unforgettable films: distinctive, intelligent and absurd humour, combined with a certain shyness and a certain amount of nervous self-reflection. The new book, presented by the translator of Michael Zantovsky, has a remarkable breadth of subject matter; but whether the author is writing about horses that paint, cars that think, the sex lives of celebrities or Chinese cuisine, he always remains an unmistakable original. An excerpt from the book will be read by Tomáš Černý, a Czech Radio reporter and performer of the audiobook By the Way.

Together with translator Michael Žantovský, the book will be welcomed by the couple Jan Hrušínský a Miluše Šplechtováwho for nearly two decades portrayed the central couple in Woody Allen Play it again, Sam at the Theatre on the Lake.
