I accidentally spent the whole season reading everything Laszlo available in English. For some reason I read Satantango last. I just finished it and although I’m not compelled to pick a favorite book by Krasznahorkai I find myself wondering whether it was all one book.

Who else has been absolutely harpooned by this stupefying writer? Damn.

    I started on Satantango like half a year ago but ran out of steam at 10% or so. I have to dive back in and finish that up. Definitely still on my list.

    Here’s a quote from Krasznahorkai

    “With this novel I can prove that I really wrote just one book in my life. This is the book—Satantango, Melancholy, War and War, and Baron. This is my one book.”
