Hrabal's postwar classic about a young man's coming of age in German-occupied Czechoslovakia is among his most popular works.

Milos Hrma is a timid railroad apprentice who insulates himself with fantasy against a reality filled with cruelty and grief.

After receiving acclaim as a novel, Closely Watched Trains was made into a successful film that won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Film of 1967.
