Description
A lifelong entanglement of love, loss, and longing is at the heart of Sándor Márai's Portraits of a Marriage. The outwardly perfect marriage of Peter and Ilonka is revealed to be a facade, hiding secrets and insecurities that threaten to destroy their relationship. Meanwhile, Peter's forbidden love for Judit, a peasant and servant from his childhood, continues to haunt him. Set against the backdrop of Hungary between the wars, this exquisite novel explores the constraints of society and the human desire for freedom.
