| Prague, 1989. As the Communist regime begins to tremble, a young cultural functionary named Ji¿í is summoned to the office of President Gustáv Husák. The solution to the growing dissident threat? Funk.
Thus begins an audacious experiment: a state-sponsored funk band designed to win back the youth with irresistible rhythms and ideologically sound lyrics. What starts as a loyal mission soon spirals into chaos, as party infighting, artistic success, and political paranoia collide. Before long, Ji¿í and his band-Funky Leninz-find themselves branded dissidents while trying to preserve the very system that created them.
Blending grotesque humor with cultural insight, Fu(n)k Bomb is both a loving homage to funk-from James Brown and Parliament-Funkadelic to Prazský výb¿r and Plastic People of the Universe-and a brilliant commentary on the final absurdities of Communist power. Translated with verve by Charles S. Kraszewski, this novel is a riotous journey into music, history, and the strange ways systems collapse. |
