Was The Good Soldier Svejk Wise Or a Simpleton?

[Inderjit S]

Any of you who have read Hasek's classic Hellerian war satire end up asking yourself the same question; this Svejk; was he wise or a complete idiot? Answers on a postcard please.

Hey, an attributive neologism - and in duplicate!: "Hellerian"
Who came first, Svejk or Yossarian, Hasek or Heller? :confused: ( :o I do know really; I'm just kidding)
