Ivan Klima is widely recognized as one of the most important Czech writers of his generation. No Saints or Angels is set in Prague during the summer of 1998 and spans three generations, from the Second World War to the new millennium. Told with great poise and affection, it attempts to make sense of the new, queasy democracy that followed the Velvet Revolution of 1989 and beautifully captures the shifting realities of contemporary Prague.

'One of the leading Czech writers of the Kundera generation... Klima's prose is controlled and rueful. This is a novel of gently delivered wisdoms, played around a very human drama of tenderness and vulnerability' Independent on Sunday 'This hig, clever, generous book is Ivan Klima's best yet' Times Literary Supplement 'He has a quiet, clear style paying forensic attention to the causes of happiness and misery, making him peculiarly absorbing... A highly intelligent novel' Sunday Tribune 'A fascinating read' Independent 'Klima's thoughtful novel ends with delicate cogency, as a tribute to human resilience' Sunday Times
