They Were Divided | Miklós Bįnffy

1 post | 2 read | 3 to read

A Hungarian classic and winner of the 2002 Oxford Weidenfeld Translation Prize, They Were Divided reflects the rapidly disintegrating course of events in central Europe on the eve of WWI. In the foreground, it tells the story of Balint and his flawed cousin, Laszlo Gyeroffy, told with humour and bittersweet nostalgia for a paradise lost through folly. In the background, the sinister and fast-moving events in the Balkans eventually not only lead to a horrific war, but also to the complete dismemberment of their once-great country.

They Were Divided | Miklós Bįnffy

This one left me broken hearted. I took my time with it, the third book in the trilogy, partly because I didn't want it to end, and partly because it wasn't an easy read with all the loss and despair the characters had to go through, and all the stupidity and manipulation the country had to experience as World War I was approaching.
This story will definitely stay with me.
