Title: The Traveler
Review: Antal Szerb THE TRAVELER translated by Peter Hargitai is an excellent read. It is a very interesting story with an odd plot to go along with an even odder main character. Mihaly the protagonist throughout the novel is struggling to find himself. Mihaly is a character unlike any other created in other novels. He has an odd sense of contentment as he claims his highlight of his childhood was dying. Throughout the novel he is trying to find himself and he finally grasps the point of his life when dying is no more than a phase of life you go through instead of something that sends you to ecstasy. Mihaly is an interesting character with a bizarre past who finally finds the point to his life. This book is great for people who are experiencing problems of enlighten and do not know what their purpose in life is.
