The Portuguese Princess and Other Stories
- Bagikan:
Charming old gentlemen, Rabelaisian women, young lovers, parents without children, children without parents, blind horses, savory ducklings, caraway seeded cakes, visions of death amid stifling bomb shelters and the exquisite, chaste beauty of nature make up the dense fabric of Tibor Dery's world in THE PORTUGUESE PRINCESS. This collection of stories of war-time survival is set in Hungary, where love and death, beauty and horror merge in a world so banal that the reality of experience is continually questioned. Dery is not merely a writer of tales; he interrogates reality with extraordinary wit and literary brilliance.
Tibor Dery: One of the most significant Hungarian writers of the twentieth century . . . Dery is one Hungarian writer whose life and works bear witness to half a century of turbulent East European history.
