Václav Havel was an iconoclast and philosopher-king, an internationally successful playwright who became a political dissident and then, reluctantly, a president. His pivotal role in the Velvet Revolution, the end of Communism and the birth of a modern, west-facing Czech Republic makes him a key figure of the 20th century. Michael Zantovsky, one of Havel's closest friends, explores his remarkable life.
