The 1986 book 'Dalkovy Vyslech' (Long-distance Questioning) [to which this book is a sequel] was released in English in 1990, after Havel helped lead the bloodless overthrow of communism known as the Velvet Revolution. The English edition was renamed Disturbing the Peace and won international acclaim.

Until now Havel's most recent book was Letní Přemítání (Summer Meditations), published in 1991 after his first year as president.
