Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Andras Felvideki (illustrator). Leichte Rillen / Abschurfungen / Risse / Knicke. This book is a heartfelt essay on a city, cleverly disguised as a guidebook. It captures the essence of Budapest and its inhabitants, both past and present. The author's insightful observations, infused with wit and honesty, reflect a deep connection to the city. Readers will find themselves immersed in the narrative as if it were a novel. It transcends a mere travel guide, offering a glimpse into the soul of one of the world's most vibrant cities, exploring its hidden corners and lively haunts. Ideal for pre-travel reading, it prepares you to experience Budapest in a way that standard guides cannot match. The author, Andras Torok, also known as Simplicissimus, has an extensive background in Budapest's urban culture. Born in 1954, he has been a chronicler of the city, having studied English, History, and Modern Greek in the 1970s. His experiences in dissident intellectual circles and various roles--translator, teacher, graphic designer, and cultural leader--inform his writing. This seventh edition of his third book showcases his evolution as a local historian, journalist, and fiction writer, making it a unique companion for anyone looking to understand Budapest deeply.
