From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Peter Pišťanek (born 28 April 1960, Devínska Nová Ves) is a Slovak writer.

His first full-length novel was Rivers of Babylon, published in 1991 (and published in English in 2007 in a translation by Peter Petro). It was followed by two other novels, The Wooden Village and The End of Freddy, which together make up a trilogy. They recount the life of Rácz, a fictitious gangster who emerged in autumn 1989 as communist rule was disintegrating.
