  World Press Review - Jachym Topol
Topol, the son of Josef Topol, a renowned playwright, began writing in the literary ghetto of the samizdat—underground literature published unofficially during the communist period.
Topol knew at that time that none of the state publishing houses would print his work, which dealt with the difficulty of living under communism, so he didn’t even bother trying.
But it wasn’t until Topol started writing prose that he was launched into the limelight.

 Jachym Topol - Nachtarbeit - Perlentaucher.de, Kultur und Literatur Online
Jachym Topol, 1962 in Prag geboren und Sohn des Dramatikers Josef Topol, war nicht nur der Star des literarischen und musikalischen Underground vor 1989, sondern ist auch heute noch der bekannteste tschechische Autor seiner Generation.
In Erscheinung getreten ist der tschechische Autor Jachym Topol zunächst als junger Wilder, als zur Bändigung seiner Sprachlust und irrwitzigen Ideen kaum befähigter Schriftsteller, zwar "irre talentiert" wie Katharina Granzin meint, aber doch auch "anstrengend zu lesen".
Geschickt spiele Topol in seiner "feingesponnenen Chronik der Gewalt" mit dem Muster des Pubertätsromans, dessen eigentlichen Themen ("erwachende Sexualität, jugendliche Streiche") er ins Unheimliche moduliere, "ja zur 'gothic novel' einschwärzt".

 SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Metro -- Scripps Health names chief of new institute
Topol said he picked San Diego because “the opportunities for research at Scripps are unparalleled.” That includes the hospital network's affiliation with the Scripps Research Institute, which has more than $230 million in federal grants.
Topol and the new institute should help Scripps gain an important weapon in its ongoing rivalry with UCSD's Thornton Hospital, which is building the Sulpizio Family Cardiovascular Center within view of Scripps Health's headquarters in La Jolla.
Topol himself has been scrutinized by the Cleveland Clinic after it was disclosed that he was a paid adviser for a hedge fund that shorted Merck stock – a way of betting that the price would go down – just before Merck removed Vioxx from the market.

 CER | Book Review: City Sister Silver by Jachym Topol
Son of the playwright Josef Topol, grandson of the writer Karel Schulz and brother of (and lyricist for) Filip Topol, the much-loved frontman of the rock band Psí vojáci, Topol became engaged in the literary and political underground at an early age.
Topol began writing poetry at an early age, but far from devoting all his energy to his literary career, he also participated in the creation of samizdat publications.
Topol was one of the first of these young Czechs (he was in his very early thirties when he wrote Sestra) to address his generation's attitude toward the new times, and he was the only one to do so in such a creative and epic manner.
