About This Item
Synopsis
Sándor Márai was born in Kassa, in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in 1900, and died in San Diego in 1989. He rose to fame as one of the leading literary novelists in Hungary in the 1930s. Profoundly antifascist, he survived World War II, but persecution by the Communists drove him from the country in 1948, first to Italy, then to the United States. He is the author of a body of work now being rediscovered and which Knopf is translating into English. A NOTE ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR Carol Brown Janeway's translations include Binjamin Wilkomirski's Fragments , Marie de Hennezel's Intimate Death , Bernhard Schlink's The Reader , Jan Philipp Reemtsma's In the Cellar , Hans-Ulrich Treichel's Lost , Zvi Kolitz's Yosl Rakover Talks to God , and Benjamin Lebert's Crazy .
