Journal Article
Remembering Liu Xiaobo one year on
2018
Overview
When he learned that Liu Xiaobo had won the Nobel Peace Prize, Vaclav Havel-who had not been acknowledged by the Nobel Academy-was extremely happy. Although his doctor had strictly forbidden him to drink alcohol, he opened a bottle he kept hidden for the great occasions, and drank to his success. When asked to write a foreword for the collection of Liu's works that I edited, he did it enthusiastically. In 2011, the Czech dissident who had spent many years in prison before being rewarded with the presidency of the Czechoslovak Republic, died in Prague, aged 75.
