Περιγραφή για The Fawn Magda Szabo MacLehose Press 0514

\"One of Hungary\'s most important twentieth-century writers\" New York Times\"Magda Szabó\'s fiction shows the travails of modern Hungarian history from oblique but sharply illuminating angles\" EconomistEszter Encsy is an acclaimed actress, funny and outrageous, quick-witted but callous. Yet even flushed with the success of adulthood, Eszter craves acceptance of herself as she really is and of the person she has been. The only child of an impoverished aristocrat and a harried music teacher failing to make ends meet, Eszter grew up poor and painfully aware of it in a provincial Hungarian town.The feelings of resentment and envy acquired during her fraught childhood have hardened into an obsessional hatred for one person, the beautiful, saintly and pampered Angéla, Eszter\'s former classmate and the wife of the man who becomes her lover. Set against newly communist 1950s Hungary, The Fawn embraces the lies and falsehoods people were obliged to live with in those nightmarish times, and displays Szabó\'s uncanny ability to convey how the past can haunt and consume us.Translated from the Hungarian by Len Rix.
