Journey by Moonlight by Antal Szerb (1937-1945) and translated from
the Hungarian by Peter Hargitai recounts the misadventures of a
closeted intellectual forced to fit into a life of conventional morality
and its notions of manhood. Thirty-six-year-old Mihály takes his
new bride to Italy for their honeymoon, where chance separates
them, and he finds himself on the run from his marriage. Wandering
aimlessly from Perugia to Rome, he begins a break-through journey
of fatally erotic longing that culminates on the edge of an abyss too
dark to contemplate. Set in Europe during the rise of Fascism, his
visionary states are eerily prophetic about one of the darkest periods
in human history and of the author's own doom.
