Két szimpla a Kedvesben

A memoir that opens with a dream of a gladiator awaiting the crowd's verdict, as the author gathers her courage to tell her story. It moves from a childhood glowing with golden light on the Great Hungarian Plain to the war and persecution, dilemmas of identity, and the worlds of factory, theatre and the humanities faculty in the early 1950s, and then to a career as a teacher and finally as a poet.
