Summary: "Budapest: Regény" by Tamás Kóbor is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in Budapest and immediately brings to life a specific street, the Koronaherceg-utcát, depicting the social dynamics and daily life of its inhabitants. The narrative explores themes of vanity, societal status, and consumerism through its vividly described characters. At the start of the novel, the reader is introduced to the Koronaherceg-utcát, depicted as a dual-natured place—both bustling and quiet, luxurious and poor. The street serves as a microcosm of Budapest society, where affluent ladies shop for the finest items juxtaposed with those who cannot afford such luxuries. The opening intricately details the interactions among the characters, notably focusing on Éva, a beautiful young woman whose encounters with a soldier begin to explore deeper themes of longing, societal pressures, and the complexities of desire. Through Éva's experiences, Kóbor paints a rich tableau of the socio-economic landscape of Budapest during this vibrant era. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
