This prose about the great Czech poet, whose work resonates with all generations of readers, is a fictionalized treatment of his authentic memories. Petr Motyl's literary treatment compares them with published poetic and prose texts, interviews, radio programmes and television documentaries. However, this is by no means a scientific or literary historical work. It is an artistic work based on fiction. Both the author who writes the text and the poet on whose narrative the text is based. "Ivan Wernisch exists, he is witty and wise, he is eighty-two years old, he reads a lot, he loves literature, he writes new and new beautiful poems, and he enjoys turbot, rabbit roast and champagne," says Petr Motyl, the author of the prose, which is the apotheosis of Wernisch's poetry intertwined with the colourful life of an extraordinary creator.
