Naši otcové
ISBN: 9788086515472 / Czeski / 2004 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Andrew O’Hagan v knize, která byla mj. nominována na prestižní Booker Prize, zobrazuje srážku mezi generacemi, mezi starým a novým Skotskem, mezi životem v ideálech a důsledky takového idealismu. Je to příběh tří mužů ze tří generací, kteří každý po svém hledají svou Utopii, příběh pýchy a klamu, víry a alkoholu, národnostní hrdosti a konce starých časů. Autor vynikajícím způsobem nastínil otázku vztahu lidí k historii, kde se vždy mísí pohled ryze osobní s pohledem celospolečenským.
