The Sound of the Sundial: Hana Andronikova’s classic at last in English translation

Any list of the top five Czech novels since the fall of communism should
include The Sound of the Sundial by Hana Andronikova. This epic love story
takes us from pre-war Czechoslovakia to India and then back into the
maelstrom of Europe during World War Two, as the young Czech-German
engineer Thomas and his Jewish wife Rachel are swept on the tide of
twentieth century history. Now for the first time this powerful and moving
novel is available in English translation. David Vaughan spoke to Rachel
Feingold, who edited and adapted the book for publication in the United
States.
