Description

A haunting and suspenseful novel about a man's desperate struggle to survive in a vast, unfamiliar city. Budai finds himself lost in a sea of languages and cultures, with no way to communicate or find his place. As the days blur together, he must navigate the treacherous landscape of this overpopulated metropolis, where the sounds and rhythms of the city seem to close in on him from all sides. This is a vision of hell unlike any other, where the boundaries between reality and nightmare are constantly blurred. Written by Hungarian author Ferenc Karinthy, Metropole is a gripping and unsettling tale that explores the disorienting experience of being a stranger in a strange land.
