The face you know becomes a stranger; the eyes hold secrets you promised to keep hidden. We are thrilled to introduce <strong>Reflections in a Broken Glass<\/strong> by Petr Opr\u0161al\u2014a collection of short stories that is, in many ways, an attempt to stare into that mirror until it cracks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These stories were not written to comfort. They were written to ask questions. What happens when our vices consume us literally? What is the cost of the orders we blindly follow? The book takes readers on a journey across different genres and human experiences, introducing people\u2014and creatures\u2014who are wrestling with the reflection they see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Four Facets of the Shattered Glass<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The collection is structured into four thematic sections, guiding the reader from the deepest internal struggles to the twilight of the world itself:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>I. The Mirror Inside (Internal Conflict):<\/strong> Exploring personal demons, addiction, and the fractured self. You will meet Bed\u0159ich, fighting a fatal duel with his &#8220;better self&#8221; in a bathroom mirror, and a man literally swallowed whole by his own bottle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>II. Blood on the Soil (War &amp; Fate):<\/strong> Reflecting on the absurdity of conflict and the loss of innocence. From a young soldier who looks into the face of an enemy only to find his own childhood staring back, to the eternal wanderer Cain in search of atonement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>III. The Absurd Theater (Satire):<\/strong> Offering strange perspectives and bizarre societies. You will travel to the smoke-choked valleys of the planet Cigarro, witness the tragic fall of a &#8220;flying man,&#8221; and observe the silent megalomania of an ant who believes he owns a millionaire&#8217;s mansion in New York.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>IV. Cycles of Time (Reality &amp; Apocalypse):<\/strong> Providing historical grounding and the ultimate end. Walk through historical Prague with paleontologist Joachim Barrande, experience the quiet despair of &#8220;The Container Man,&#8221; and witness a new, terrifying birth in a post-apocalyptic crater.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We invite you to walk with these characters. You may find that their strange, tragic, and sometimes laughable worlds are not so different from our own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary><em>Posted by Petr Oprsal<\/em><\/summary><figure class=\"wp-block-post-featured-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"low\" width=\"848\" height=\"1264\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.petroprsal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cover.png\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"object-fit:cover;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.petroprsal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cover.png 848w, https:\/\/blog.petroprsal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cover-201x300.png 201w, https:\/\/blog.petroprsal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cover-687x1024.png 687w, https:\/\/blog.petroprsal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Cover-768x1145.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\" \/><\/figure><\/details>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D\u00edvat se do zrcadla, dokud nepraskne: P\u0159edstavujeme \u201eOdrazy v rozbit\u00e9m skle\u201c Kdy\u017e se dostate\u010dn\u011b dlouho d\u00edv\u00e1te do zrcadla, obraz se za\u010dne deformovat.
