Langkau, Daniel Kraft and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Der Zauberkaftan" by Kálmán Mikszáth is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in the town of Kecskemét, showcasing the struggles of its citizens as they grapple with the constant threats imposed by Turkish invaders and other marauding factions. Central to the story is Michael Lestyák, a young man who becomes the Oberrichter, or judge, of Kecskemét, and his ventures to protect his hometown from ongoing oppression. The opening of the novel introduces the dire situation in Kecskemét, where citizens routinely suffer from the plundering of their town by various military factions, including the Turks and Kuruts. Faced with this unrest, Lestyák is called upon to navigate a path forward, leading to a comical but poignant proposal to engage with the Turkish authorities. As the citizens devise a plan to secure a Turkish presence as a means of protection, the atmosphere is laden with both danger and absurdity. The introduction sets the stage for a mix of political intrigue, humor, and satire, hinting at the community's resilience and creativity in the face of peril.
