This novel stages a story of adultery through which we see Bergman’s attempts to understand his parents’ troubled relationship. Through a series of revelatory confessions, Anna tells of her affair with her husband’s young friend Tomas and her unhappiness with her life as wife of a dour country pastor.
The book is a philosophical thriller/comedy/murder-mystery/ghost story set first in London and then in Wales. A mystical element is diffused through an increasingly complex plot, as all threads converge in the final chapters.
Written by Hungary’s greatest modern novelist, Be Faithful Unto Death is the moving story of a bright and sensitive schoolboy growing up in an old, established boarding school in the city of Debrecen in eastern Hungary.
