Iza's Ballad | Magda Szabo

Pickpick

I loved this tragic book about family dynamics and the inability to reach one another. When Vince dies, Ettie (‘the old lady‘) moves in with their daughter Iza in Budapest, #Hungary. The relationships between mother and daughter and between all other characters in this book, are revealed in heartbreaking details and by the thoughts of all involved. Nothing outspoken. Which makes it even more touching.
