 | Castilla La Vieja - Karel Capek "I thought I must be feverish, for I had never seen a plain like that before.." An illustration from the book "Letters From Spain" written and illustrated by Karel Capek, translated by Paul Selver, published by George Bles, London, 1931. Capek, (1890-1938), the Czech writer best known for his plays, wrote a number of travel books in an amused and urbane style which suffused his accompanying drawings as well. He invented the word 'robot'. Number of Votes: 0 Rating: 0.00 Rate this image Comments: 0 Write a comment |
