Book excerpt: "When the Communists took over Czechoslovakia in 1948. Teige was first hailed as a progressive, then denounced for not toeing the party line - even though he was never a card-carrying member of the Communist Party. He died a broken man, forbidden to speak out or to publish. Since the recovery of his work after the "velvet revolution" of 1989, his legacy has been revived not only in Prague but also in Western Europe and the United States."--BOOK JACKET.
