Soviet bloc authors plagued by censorship
By Tim Sltar
Staff Writer
Chechoslovakian novelist Josef
Skvorecto spoke about the problems of
being an author In the Soviet Bloc at the
Valley Business Center Thursday night
Skvorcoky has had 12 novels trans¬
lated into English and ran a publishing
house for Czech dissident and exiled
writers up until the Nov. 17 change of
government.
Writers have often had the dual role of
artist and politician. This has especially
been the role of the Czech writer. The
only Ume Czech writers' haven't faced
this dual role was In the 20 years prior
to World Warn.
"After the 1938 Munich Agreement,
Czech writers became political writers
again. That continued under the Sovi¬
ets.
"Writers are believed to be very Impor¬
tant in the absence of a free press." said
Skvorecky.
There were three types of writers In
the old Soviet Bloc: Those who got
published, ihe dissidents and the exiles.
The writers who get published do what
the government wants, but avoid the
central Issues or the time. For example.
the old Czech regime was run by the
secret police, but no one could write
about IL
"It's like Mark Twain not being able to
write about slavery," Skvorecky said.
Dissident writers are self-published,
often typing out carbon copies of entire
novels.
The dissident writers couldn't get
decent Jobs, were under constant sur¬
veillance and often Interrogated," the
author said.
An observation tower was built by
police outside the home of current Czech
President and playwright Vaclav Havel.
in an effort to monitor him
Also, exiled writers must ply their
trade outside of their native land. Many
