Milý Řehoři, milíře hoří

The book presents the poet Karel Šiktanc (1928–2021) as the author of witty word puzzles. In this realm, he was best known for his anagrams, but as early as the late 1940s, he also started creating short rhyming puzzles, which he published under the pseudonym Lenka Tršická in puzzle magazines. The collection of short texts demonstrates the author’s extraordinary ability to play with language and uncover its hidden potential. The book contains more than a thousand of Šiktanc’s anagrams and rhyming riddles, including their solutions.
