The attractiveness of Honza Krejcarová’s literary work is partially due to its fragmentary character
and its role in the development of underground literature. From this point of view, it is difficult to
compare to her the famous and scandalous authors of the French existentialist generation, in particular
Jean Genet, cult author of France from the end of the Second World War until the decolonization,
or Violette Leduc, who stood out as a name mattering in the initiation of the young generations
to homosexual literature and one of the founders of self-fiction. In spite of all these differences,
the kinship of the texts of these ‘unruly childrenʼ, at the same time ‘enfants martyrsʼ and ‘enfants
prodigesʼ, with those, contemporaries, of Krejcarová is striking. The texts of their two more famous
commentators, Jean-Paul Sartre for the first one and Simone de Beauvoir for the second one, helps
to understand how the myth of these authors was born in a time fascinated by the principle of pleasure
up to the death drive.
