Description
Hungarian writer Antal Szerb's novels have been known to an English readership for a number of years, but his work as a literary historian is only now becoming available in English. This event celebrates the publication of his essays entitled Reflections in the Library: Selected Literary Essays 1926-1944 in Peter Sherwood’s translation (Legenda, January 2017). Speakers include translators, literary historians and the editors of the volume.
