starlight97 @Jari-chan where are you from?😁 13mo
Jari-chan @starlight97 Switzerland 😁 which part of Hungary are you from? 13mo
Chrissyreadit @Jari-chan did you grow up in Switzerland? @starlight97 what genre do you like to read? I am of Hungarian descent but do not know many books that have been translated to English to give me a flavor of Hungary. 13mo
starlight97 @Jari-chan so how do you know Hungarian? 😅 I'm from the Great Plain, currently live in Baja by the river Danube, near the Serbian border 😊 13mo
starlight97 @Chrissyreadit I read mostly anything except romance 😄 there are some great books that have been translated to English, I can recommend the works of Magda Szabó for example 😊![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
The Door 13mo
The DoorJari-chan @Chrissyreadit Yes, I'm about 100% Swiss 😅 @starlight97 I've spent a year in Hungary. Also some months in Szeged 😊 13mo
Chrissyreadit I have stacked The Door, and am curious as well as ignorant about genres- so many books i see from Eastern Europe are more serious- but i feel like i rarely see more light (Like Jane Austen‘s) or fantasy - are there good options of those genres through a Hungarian lens that you know of? Also what is a popular children‘s book? 13mo

starlight97 @Jari-chan ah I see! Did you like it? 😊 13mo
starlight97 @Chrissyreadit there are some Hungarian authors who write sci-fi and fantasy under pseudonyms, like Brandon Hackett, Leslie L. Lawrence or Vavyan Fable. I'm not really up to date with children's books but some I loved as a kid were by István Csukás, Veronika Marék, Éva Janikovszky or Zoltán Zelk. I'm not sure if these were ever translated though. 13mo
Chrissyreadit ❤️ that‘s great for me to look up though- thank you. my Father was very proud of being Hungarian but i only know a tiny bit. 13mo
Jari-chan @starlight97 Yes, of course! I get homesick for Hungary pretty often ☺️ 13mo
