On its initial publication in Czech in 1942, Saturnin was a best seller, its gentle satire offering an unexpectedif temporaryreprieve from the grim reality of the German occupation. In the years since, the novel has been hailed as a classic of Czech literature, and this translation makes it available to Englishlanguage readers for the first timewhich is entirely appropriate, for author Zdenek Jirotka clearly modeled his light comedy on the English masters Jerome K. Jerome and P. G. Wodehouse. The novels main character, Saturnin, a gentlemans gentleman who obviously owes a debt to Wodehouses beloved Jeeves, wages a constant battle to protect his master from romantic disaster and intrusive relatives, such as Aunt Catherine, the Prancing Dictionary of Slavic Proverbs. Saturnin will warm the heart of any fan of literary comedy.
