About this person
Richard Weiner was a Czech writer, poet, and journalist. He is considered one of the most notable 20th century Czech authors, and influenced the literary work of many of his peers, as well as younger writers. His works, however, are little known outside of the Czech Republic. Because of his enigmatic writings, he has often been likened to Franz Kafka, although mutual influences can be ruled out with near certainty. He has been called "the poet of anxiety", others spoke of him as "the Odd-man out" of Czech literature. Karel Čapek, his contemporary, dubbed him "the man of pain."
