Mitana worked for two of the most prominent literary journals in ia, Mladá tvorba and Romboid, and from 1975 on he was a freelance writer. He wrote more than a dozen books of prose, two collections of poetry, and several scripts. His work has been published in more than twenty countries.

His last book, Nezvestný (Missing, 2019), has been published posthumously. Read more
