Title: Traveler
Review: Finding out that you've been lying to yourself your whole life and see yourself not even sure what you want in life is something that doesn't normally happend on yur wedding night. But it did to Mihaly (the protagonistof the book The Traveler) and Erzsi on theirs. Mihaly, I thought through the beginning of the book was confused about his sexuality as he says he has feelings for his best friend Tamas. But as I was intrigued by this love story I find it's more of a self dicovery. Him and his wife get seperated by getting on two different trains, but it seems to Mihaly that it was maybe more of a favor to him. Being obsessed with his passed he goes on a journey to find something like it or to discover who he really is. Peter Hargitai translated this book in a way that you could feel and see what Antal Szerb did. He makes you feel as if you were there.
