Mentions across episodes
“I'm amazed to read in your notes that he translated Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men and a Boat into Czech. I heartily recommend Three Men and a Boat to our listeners.”
Sentiment: Highly Recommended
Trigger: Czech history and literature
For: Listeners interested in historical context and literature
Key quote: “I heartily recommend Three Men and a Boat to our listeners.”
The host mentions 'Three Men and a Boat' in the context of its translation by Dr. Emil Hacher, the Czech president during a critical time in history. They humorously suggest that the book, while not a guide to confronting the Third Reich, reflects a cultural touchstone that might have influenced the British spirit during the war.
