Title: Lovely Tale of Photography
Author: Peter Nadas
ISBN: 9788090217164
Publisher: Twisted Spoon Press
Published: 2015
Binding: Paperback
Language: English
Edition: 1
Condition Note: New from the publisher
Publisher Description: Péter Nádas is one of the most renowned contemporary Hungarian authors. A Lovely Tale of Photography displays his essentially experimental orientation. It is a hallucinatory novella about a female photographer who is suffering from an undetermined illness. Confined to a sanatorium, where she is surrounded by a cast of stock characters speaking various languages, she is made to confront a reality other than that framed by her camera. The novel takes the form of short scenes, as if a film sequence, and this structure lends the text a fairy-tale, poetic quality similar to many surrealist works.
Nominated for the 2001 International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award
