SVATOPLUK ČECH _(1846-) is the successor in both prose and verse of / Neruda and like him he is greater as a poet than as a prose writer, and / like him, too, he has tried his hand at every variety and style of / writing._ / _Among his books of verse are -- "The Smith of Lešetin," "In Shadow of the / Linden"; many delightful ballades -- such as "The Lark" -- have been written / by him._ / _We include perhaps his best short story -- "The Journey. " None of the / verse of Čech has appeared in English. Of his prose we know of only one / other translated story._[3]
