pavel brycz
Pavel Brycz was born in 1968 in the Czech town of Roudnice nad Labem. A graduate of Prague's Drama Academy,
he worked as a copywriter for an advertising agency where he produced the Czech slogan for KFC (roughly translated
as "damn good chicken"). He is the author of six books. For I, City he was awarded the Orten Prize, and in 2004 he
received the State Prize for Literature, its youngest recipient ever. In English his work has appeared in the anthology
Daylight in Nightclub Inferno (Catbird Press, 1997). Currently he teaches Czech language and literature at a
Gymnasium in Liberec, hosts a weekly children's program on Czech radio that narrates legends from around the world,
and writes lyrics for the Balkan-chanson-folk band Zdarr.
