Wait Until the Oak Loses Its LeavesSummary
The story of the famed cleverness and wit of the simple farmer Čupera, who not only wins out over the demon of alcohol, but also over a bureaucratically relentless and thorough devil. The hell, which the farmer experiences during the detoxication cure, is in the style of a honky-tonk bar, a galley with prison and dehumanized night club .
