Crazy, funny and gorgeously dark, Kornél Esti sets into rollicking action a series of adventures about a man and his wicked dopplegänger, who breathes every forbidden idea of his childhood into his ear, and then reappears decades later.
Part Gogol, part Chekhov, and all brilliance, Kosztolányi in his final book serves up his most magical, radical, and intoxicating work. Here is a novel which inquires: What if your id (loyally keeping your name) decides to strike out on its own, cuts a disreputable swath through the world, and then sends home to you all its unpaid bills and ruined maidens? And then: What if you and your alter ego decide to write a book together?

翻译一气呵成,令人敬畏,由作者和分裂人格共同完成小说这个创意也很有吸引力,内容不乏亮点,不过太mind-fucking读来头疼,大概我跟匈牙利文学八字不合。

小说由多个短篇组成,时而魔幻,时而现实,百年前的小说真有意思。

28.03.2018 一连串或可爱或可笑或可恶的小片段构成了这本杂文集子。偏偏读了法语版,婆婆妈妈的让人实在分神。
