Jaroslav Hašek (30 April 1883 - 3 January 1923) was an author and satirist from Prague, who he lived a short and extremely turbulent life.
He is best known as the author of the famous satirical novel The Good Soldier Švejk (literally The Fates of the Good Soldier Švejk During the World War) but also wrote more than 1,200 short stories/feuilletons/articles, numerous poems, and co-authored some cabaret plays. His literary output may have been even greater than these numbers indicate because he flooded newspapers and magazines with his stories and used at least 100 pseudonyms.
