THE BOOK OF FATHERS – A novel by Miklós Vámos

(translated from the Hungarian Apák könyve by Peter Sherwood)

Jane Smiley’s review in the New York Times Book Review, October 2009:

 

“The Book of Fathers […] is graceful and alluring, a leisurely introduction to the last 300 years of Hungarian history and an often affecting depiction of the way individuals must appear and disappear, alive for a few years and then lost entirely, even to their own descendants.”
