• Five Stars

  Curious and different, quirky and very readable.

• Satantango casts a Beckett-like shadow...

  Satantango, a novel by the Hungarian novelist, Laszlo Krasznahorkai is not written for the faint of heart. It is set "somewhere" in eastern Europe during or after the Second World War. Like Samuel Beckett's "Waiting for Godot", nothing much happens. A group of villagers get word that a man from their collective past,who was revered by all of them, is returning to the village. The men of the village spend their time anticipating his return by getting drunk, dancing, lusting after other men's wifes, and plotting betrayals of their neighbours. At least one of the village's women sees this hero's return as her personal salvation, releasing her from a loveless, albeit economically expedient marriage. Like the landscape of war and communism the village is a place of mud, rain and desolation... a landscape without hope, or any kind of future. If you are a reader who likes linear writing with a plot that gives you a beginning, middle and end, do not read this novel. However, if you are a reader who seeks to immerse yourself in a brilliant, absurdist novel about the state of nihilistic dispair and utter hopelessess that pervaded Eastern Europe during the mid-twentieth century...this is the tale for you. Krasznhorkai's writing is predicated on the creation of a kind of scaffolding out of which ascends an architecture of bleak gothic-like themes and motifs...all sculpted in huge, pages-long sentences... It is disorienting and yet, so beautifully crafted that I couldn't put this novel down. Oh, as an afterthought, I have to assume that Krasznahorkai's translator is very, very skilled; ironically, I never felt "lost" in this haunting, nay harrowing tale.

• Hard work for little reward

  Nice language but didn’t go anywhere. I gave up after 4 chapters.

• Good seller, good book

  The seller is trustworthy. Item shipped on time, arrived in perfect condition. The book is incredible. Highly recommended.
