Originally written in 1937, and here presented in a brilliant new translation by Peter V. Czipott, Antal Szerbs gently humorous and psychologically subtle exploration into the workings of a budding bourgeois marriage has been hailed as one of the great rediscovered classics of the twentieth century.
Travelling to Italy on their honeymoon, Erszi and Mihá ly are ready to take in all the beauties and pleasures of the country. But when they reach Venice, it is clear that Mihá ly prefers to roam around the back alleys and the canals on his own, and as they continue their journey through the Bel Paese there is a growing sense of unrest between them, until Mihá ly misses the train to Rome they were due to take together. Wandering alone from city to city, with his marriage rapidly falling apart, Mihá ly must confront the ghosts of his past and try to find a sense of purpose.

Portrait

Antal Szerb

Antal Szerb (1901-45) was a Hungarian novelist, scholar, literary historian and translator whose works were greeted with widespread appreciation but who faced ever-increasing hostility and persecution because of his Jewish background. He tragically died in a concentration camp, beaten to death by camp guards, at the age of forty-three.

Pressestimmen

A novel to love as well as admire, always playful and ironical, full of brilliant descriptions, bon mots and absurd situations. it's a book utterly in love with life. Kevin Crossley-Holland The Guardian
