In Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci — clues visible for all to see — yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.
A seamless combination of the political, literary and personal history of postwar Hungary. This scathing, at times humorous, and always insightful memoir by exiled Hungarian novelist Sandor Marai provides one of the most poignant and humanly alive portraits of life in Hungary between the German occupation in 1944 and the solidification of communist power in 1948.
MIMI is a magnificent work, as is its heroine of the same name. She is a true aristocrat, yet at the same time a real human being. The social conflicts and political convulsions of the period of World War II are depicted beautifully and realistically. The tragedy of the victims of the holocaust brings their human misery right into the reader’s living room.
