Synopsis "El Reino Dividido"
Reflecting on the rapidly disintegrating course of events in Central Europe, this account centers on the lives of Transylvanian Count Balint Abady, his beloved Adrienne, and his flawed cousin Laszlo Gveroffy, who dies in poverty and neglect. Told with humor and bittersweet nostalgia, this book chronicles the sinister and fast-moving events in Montenegro, the Balkan Wars, and the apparent encirclement of Germany and Austria-Hungary by Britain, France, and Russia. This compelling novel deals with Hungarian politics on the verge of collapse and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand as the youth of Hungary march gaily off not only to their death on the battle field but also to the disintegration of their once-great country. Reflexionando sobre el curso de desintegración rápida de los acontecimientos en Europa central, este cuento se centra en la vida del conde transilvano Balint Abady, su amada Adriana y su primo defectuoso Laszlo Gveroffy, que muere en la pobreza y el abandono. Contado con humor y nostalgia agridulce, este libro narra los sucesos siniestros y vertiginosos en Montenegro, la guerra de los Balcanes y el cerco aparente de Alemania y Austria-Hungría por Gran Bretaña, Francia y Rusia. Esta novela absorbente trata sobre la política de Hungría al borde del colapso y el asesinato del archiduque Franz Ferdinand mientras los jóvenes de Hungría marchan alegremente, no solamente a sus muertes en el campo de batalla, sino también a la desintegración de su otrora gran país.
