Thanks :)<br /><br />To the topic unnamed narrator: In Szabo's books are the narrators usually Magda Szabo's alter egos. The writer/the narrator in The Door is the "fictionalized" Magda Szabo. <br />It's a quite "personal" art of literature. <br /><br />Oh, yes, and: the director Istvan Szabo (Mephisto, Sunshine, Being Julia, etc) is currenly making a movie version from this book with Helen Mirren in Emerenc's role.Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04127297861260947593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-54698497822270856352010-09-07T17:04:35.060-04:002010-09-07T17:04:35.060-04:00I'm always a bit skeptical of books where the ...I'm always a bit skeptical of books where the narrator is not named.

I haven't had the experience of reading many books that are light on dialogue, but in this case, I think the lack is not necessarily a hindrance. I will be looking for this one, Marie!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857638467064749190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-7728036594801117472010-09-07T12:15:18.789-04:002010-09-07T12:15:18.789-04:00Wow!
