Ádám Bódór is a living classic of modern Hungarian literature, whose fate is inextricably linked with the tragic history of Eastern Europe. Having emigrated from totalitarian Romania to Hungary, he achieved cult status. Today, his books have been translated into dozens of languages, and his work has been awarded the highest national awards.

The pages of the novel bring a surreal and sinister world to life. The inhabitants of Verkhovyna dispassionately accept cruelty and betrayal as inevitable laws of nature, while their inner resistance is suppressed by the authorities. Combining a dark, Kafkaesque aesthetic with subtle irony, Ádám Bódór makes the reader shudder at the mercilessness of events and simultaneously laugh at its utter senselessness.
