You meet at the Memorial of the Victims of Communism on a cool Prague morning; the air smells of fresh bread and the Vltava river seems to tug at the city’s edges. The guide leads the group up the worn stones of Pohořelec toward Strahov, where a monastery library still holds medieval manuscripts and hushes crowds with carved oak and leather spines.
