Just in time for the Frankfurt Book Fair, a new translation is published by KLAK Verlag in Berlin. David Vaughan\u2019s novel HEAR MY VOICE (H\u00d6RET MEINE STIMME) explores the role of radio in Czechoslovakia shortly before World War II. Drawing on extensive research, the author has crafted a charming narrative voice that takes us right into the heart of the events in Prague and the Sudetenland in 1937 and 1938, introducing us directly to numerous historical figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Prague, late 1937: A young interpreter from England finds himself caught up in the dramatic months leading up to the Munich Agreement. Working alongside radio journalists, he experiences first-hand how a new medium \u2013 radio \u2013 becomes a battlefield: A tool of enlightenment for some, a weapon of hatred for others. David Vaughan brings real-life figures of the era \u2013 from Edvard Bene\u0161 to William Shirer and Karel \u010capek \u2013 to life and paints a gripping portrait of a year in which manipulation became the norm and the world learnt to mistrust the false voices \u2013 too late. A novel about the beginnings of propaganda in the age of radio, which remains disturbingly relevant today.\u201d (Publisher\u2019s blurb)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book is, together with all pertinent information, available here per the publisher’s website<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
