Time, identity and being

Peter Majer

pp. 172-182

History had come to a halt, not only in the Prague Castle but in the whole country. So much faster does it roll forward now that we have at long last freed ourselves from the paralysing strait-jacket of the totalitarian system. Time has speeded up.1
