Publisher Description: Ripe with love, money, and power, the story of 35-year-old Rudolf--set in a fast-paced, urban environment--begs the question Do we only think we exist? Rudolf and his wife work day and night hoping for a better life--he is a philosophy graduate student and the manager of a car dealership. He also keeps up a heart-wrenching relationship with the chic Wanda. Then there is Nina, who studies logic but is secretly a prostitute, and Alfred, owner of a car-leasing company, seemingly upright, but actually an embezzler. Each character conceals something. Be it in Hungary or North America, the craving for existential clarity remains strong. |
