"A traveler by moonlight"
One of the most important Hungarian novels of the modern era, penned by one of the great Hungarian and European novelists alike, Szerb Antal, the famous author, novelist, translator and literary historian. This novel was published in its first Hungarian edition in 1937, achieving success at the local, international and global levels, and was turned into cinematic films, plays and serials. A novel that delves into the analysis of the human psyche, where the hero tries hard to return to the past through the time machine, and to complete his enjoyment of his youth away from marriage, but to no avail. Man does this, his destiny is written, and he must live it. The hero of our novel, Mihai, tries to escape from his married life, but the end of the novel is where it began. The novel ends with this sentence, “As long as man lives, something will inevitably and always happen,” along with other details.
