Summary: "Két nyár: Novellák" by Margit Kaffka is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The narrative explores the lives and struggles of characters living in a modest setting, focusing on relationships, societal expectations, and personal aspirations. The opening portion introduces Veron and Károly Vitorisz, a couple navigating the challenges of life in Budapest, with themes of duty, ambition, and connection unfolding as they prepare for daily tasks and engage with their neighbors. At the start of the narrative, we meet Veron busily hanging laundry in their cramped apartment, pondering the changes that spring brings while reflecting on their current lifestyle. The couple expresses a mix of optimism and worry about their finances, social relations, and the potential for change in their lives. Veron’s dynamic character showcases her resilience as she seeks to create a cozy home despite their financial struggles, while Károly's more subdued demeanor hints at his internal conflict regarding work and supporting his wife. Their interactions with neighbors and the arrival of a new acquaintance, Erzsi, set the stage for further entanglements, suggesting a rich exploration of themes related to social class, gender, and human connection in a rapidly changing society.
