Let me be cool.

The 70th birthday of Lajos Parti Nagy is a celebration of contemporary Hungarian literature and a great opportunity to reread this unparalleled poetic oeuvre, from Angyalstop to Szódalovaglás and Grafitness to his latest poems. Reading the volume reveals the inner movements of his oeuvre; we see how the characteristic figures are born, how the heroes with speaking names and who talk a lot are given voice and face. Lajos Parti Nagy's writing is in constant dialogue with everyday spoken language and the million traditions of Hungarian literature; and by reading the book, we too will be part of this conversation.
