György Dragoman

The novel The White King by contemporary Hungarian writer György Dragomán is one of the most evocative stories about growing up.

Told in eighteen chapters, which can also be read as individual stories, from the perspective of an eleven-year-old boy awaiting his father's return from forced labor, The White King is a powerful novel about childhood in a dictatorial regime in Eastern Europe. Through the story of a boy and his rebellion, the history of internal rebellion and discontent in Eastern Europe in the 1980s is told. Full of humor, irony, and melancholy, The White King is a novel that, through its stylistic and narrative techniques, betrays a novelist of great momentum, one of the best contemporary young European writers. It has been translated into some twenty languages.
