Interview with George Szirtes

Interesting interview with Marai translator George Szirtes:


"My Márai is not better than Márai, it is just a possible English Márai that depends entirely on the Hungarian Márai."

Interview at The Oxonian Review

Great work with the blog, although it should be titled "Sandor Marai in English blog". Just wanted to tell you that I bought "The Stranger" the other day, in Spanish (my own mother tongue) and it's already on its 45th edition! Can't believe this amazing book has not been translated to English yet. I've seen it in German though ("Die Fremde"). Regards

Marai's wife wrote about him scoring day in their daily lives. Do you if these diaries are stored somewhere know?
thanks
