It all begins, even the end, when Lajos von Lázár, the blond child with the water-blue eyes, is born. His father, the baron, will never be comfortable with the son, as if he suspected his secret. Lajos' birth in the forest castle also marks the beginning of the 20th century, which will forever change the old life of Barons Lázár in southern Hungary. The fall of the Habsburg Empire only affects their traditions at first, but everyone feels the tremor of time, the beautiful Mária as well as the ghostly Uncle Imre. When Lajos took over his inheritance in the 1920s, the old glory seemed to blossom once again. But the children Eva and Pista - who loves darkness so much - have to experience how totalitarian times cast their powerful shadows - and learn to survive against them. A novel like a world, the overwhelming saga of a family, driven by love and the longing for it, in the whirlpools of the 20th century. Captivating and touching, at the same time full of lightness, full of dreams and secrets in which the whole tragedy and beauty of existence is reflected. And - whether in the face of historical catastrophes or beautiful summer days - the eternal question of how to live. New product
