sunflower

Delicacy did not protect the noble young woman in her twenties, Evelyn, from the disappointments of love, so she leaves Budapest, going to her ancestral home in a village on the banks of the Tisza River, in the hope that she will find tranquility and enjoyment there. But her sense of security is shaken as her suspicions mount that there is someone roaming around her house. Do you see him as her lover, Kalman? She doesn''t know whether to hope so or fear it! Evelyn immerses herself in a strange world in which the dead mix with the living, and reality with myth, so that everything strange seems very ordinary. A girl loves a tree, a man lies in his coffin and reads the Book of Hours, and the ghosts of disappointed lovers haunt their lovers... In "Sunflowers," the Hungarian writer Jula Krodi uses descriptive language and free association in which dream and reality are mixed, to bring the reader into the depths of his characters and make him see nature. With their eyes, he paints an image of the Hungarian countryside where people spend their lives searching for love, just as a sunflower moves in search of light.
