Pick of the Month | All stories

In Pick of the Month, we revisit some of the highlights in our broadcasting schedule over the last thirty days or so. Some of the things in this month's selection include a look at the significance of the Skoda industrial dispute, the life and career of the recently deceased Czech poet and philosopher Egon Bondy, Kurt Vonnegut Jr.'s surprising Czech connections, the amazing story of Prague resident Adolf Burger who forged dollars for the Third Reich, and an interview with Czech feminist scholar Marcela Linkova.

Pick of the Month is a new feature which takes a quick look back at some of the highlights in our programming over the past thirty days or so. Some of the things we have included in this month's selection are our look at right-wing extremism in the Czech Republic, the visit we paid to the mint in Kutna Hora, and interviews we had with British film director Leslie Woodhead and the Czech translator of Tom Stoppard's new play Rock'n'Roll, which was inspired by The Plastic People of the Universe.
