The House on Matoušova Street, Tereza Boučková’s latest novel, has been honoured with the 2025 Miroslav Ivanov Prize for best historical novel. Since 2001, this prize has been awarded in the Czech Republic to the most outstanding publications in the field of non-fiction. It is announced by the Club of Non-fiction Authors. The historian Miroslav Ivanov (1929-1999) was a popular Czech writer who mostly dealt with Czech history in his books.

In The House on Matoušova Street, Tereza Boučková creates a memorial to the people who lived in her childhood home in Prague. The many personal stories of the residents of the house combine to create a retrospective of the history of the 20th century, especially the Second World War and the communist era in the former Czechoslovakia.
