Gyula Krāā«dy is a marvelous writer who haunted the taverns of Budapest and lived on its streets while turning out a series of mesmerizing, revelatory novels that are among the masterpieces of modern literature. Krāā«dy conjures up a world that is entirely his ownāĆĆ®dreamy, macabre, comic, and eroticāĆĆ®where urbane sophistication can erupt without warning into passion and madness.
In Sunflower young Eveline leaves the city and returns to her country estate to escape the memory of her desperate love for the unscrupulous charmer KāĀ°lmāĀ°n. There she encounters the melancholy āĆ lmos-Dreamer, who is languishing for love of her, and is visited by the bizarre and beautiful Miss MaszkerāĀ°di, a woman who is a force of nature. The plot twists and turns; elemental myth mingles with sheer farce: Krāā«dy brilliantly illuminates the shifting contours and acid colors of the landscape of desire.
John BāĀ°tkiāĆĆ“s outstanding translation of Sunflower is the perfect introduction to the world of Gyula Krāā«dy, a genius as singular as Robert Walser, Bruno Schulz, or Joseph Roth.
