The Dukays<br />
Lajos Zilahy<br />
With historical vision Lajos Zilahy’s novel, The<br />
Dukays, chronicles the oldest aristocratic family<br />
in Hungary and their inexorable decline after WWI.<br />
After centuries of rule disintegration and war force the<br />
new generation to face a destiny they are unprepared<br />
for, especially the daughters, Zia and Kristina, who are<br />
caught between the old ways and their roles as powerful<br />
women in the 20th century. Their decisions will<br />
seal the family’s fate in this tumultuous family saga.<br />
Lajos Zilahy (1891-1974) was the leading Hungarian<br />
novelist of the 20th century. His extraordinary<br />
recreations of the momentous public events and the<br />
passionate private lives of his characters form a unique<br />
portrait of Central European life. He was a veteran of<br />
WWI. Much of The Dukays was written while the author<br />
was hiding from the Nazis. This edition was translated<br />
from the Hungarian by John Pauker, now<br />
deceased. Originally published in 1949, this is the first<br />
publication in paperback in the US.<br />
