This charming, erudite artist spent his boyhood in the Czech Resistance, defending his homeland from the Nazis and the Communists. I recently received a message from a reader of Border Crossings: Coming of Age in the Czech Resistance. He commented “Kissing the ground of his Southfield backyard really stayed with me.” This is in reference to Charles’s statement in the book, “when we returned home, I kissed the ground in my Southfield backyard.”. Novacek continued his work in the resistance after World War II ended as the Soviets occupied his homeland. He endured arrest, capture, and torture ultimately escaping across the German border. Novacek’s memoir brings the experiences and thoughts of the young resistance fighter sharply to life while also bearing the sage perspective of a man in his eighth decade of life.
