Despite his significant contributions, Szerb's career was tragically cut short by the rise of Fascism, leading to his deportation and death in a concentration camp. This volume marks the first time his important essays have been translated into English, highlighting his enduring legacy and the impact of his work on literature, both in Hungary and internationally.
