English
"Talks with T. G. Masaryk is not ... your run-of-the-mill political autobiography; it's informal,
being an oral monologue, yet literary due to its shaping by novelist Karel Čapek. ...
As president of Czechoslovakia between 1918 and 1935, Masaryk says he 'relinquished
nothing as head of state that I believe in and loved as a penniless student,
a teacher of youth, a nagging critic, and a political reformer.' If indeed that statement
is true, Masaryk surely must be the last democratically elected leader to have enjoyed such freedom.
—Chris Goodrich, Los Angeles Times Book Review
