The corner of death

More about the book

The Corner of Death commemorates the 100th anniversary of Czechoslovakia's founding, drawing from true events with a strong military history focus on World War II and Czechoslovakia's role. The narrative centers on a resilient Slovak woman who fights on the Eastern Front, striving to reunite with her love and combat the enemy at home. It details Czechoslovakia's struggles, particularly during World War II and the subsequent communist era, with significant attention to wartime events in Slovakia's Liptov region. This novel appeals to both "war geeks" and the general public interested in the Second World War, the Eastern Front, and the contributions of smaller nations in the fight against tyranny. It will resonate with readers from various nations, including the UK, France, Germany, Poland, Russia, Ukraine, and the US, as it delves into interconnected historical narratives. While suitable for younger audiences, it does not romanticize war, presenting it as a grim chapter in human history. The book is firmly antifascist and anticommunist, revealing the realities faced by war heroes and the injustices they endured post-war. After decades of historical distortion under socialism in Czechoslovakia, the author undertook extensive research to share the true story of a small democratic nation that fiercely sought its freedom. The book is priced affordably to reach a broader audience. For more information, visit my vladimirolej or corne
