«Una historia: dos relatos» is a book of two stories by Imre Kertész and Péter Esterházy, published by Galaxia Gutenberg in hardcover (80 pages, in Spanish).
In «Expediente», Imre Kertész tells how a customs officer interrogates a traveler in Vienna and leaves him defenseless before authority. Esterházy, after a similar situation, writes «Vida y literatura», his version of the anecdote, where the mark of difficult times shows through. Two stories that converse about power and humiliation.
The translation is by Adan Kovacsics and the work appeared in 2005 in the Narrativa collection of Galaxia Gutenberg.
For those who want to discover Hungarian literature through a conversation between two of its authors.
Imre Kertész was a Hungarian author and recipient of the 2002 Nobel Prize in Literature, "for writing that upholds the fragile experience of the individual against the barbaric arbitrariness of history". He was the first Hungarian to win the Nobel in Literature. His works deal with themes of the Holocaust, dictatorship, and personal freedom.
