Book excerpt: This antiquarian volume contains Karel Capek's "And So Ad Infinitum: An Entomological Review in Three Acts". This delightfully witty and thoroughly thought-provoking play is testament to Capek's mastery of the written word in all its forms, and constitutes a worthy addition to any personal library. The acts of this play are: "Act I: The Butterflies", "Act II: Creepers and Crawlers", "Act III: The Ants", "Epilogue: Death and Life". Karel Capek (1890 - 1938) was a famous Czech writer of the early-twentieth century. He worked as a playwright, publisher, literary reviewer, and art critic, but is most remembered for his science fiction writing. We are republishing this antiquarian book now in an affordable, modern edition - complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
