WINNER OF THE 2025 NOBEL PRIZEA dark, haunting masterpiece by the author of The Melancholy of Resistance and Seiobo There Below Now in paperback, Satantango, the novel that inspired Béla Tarrs classic film, is proof that the devil has all the good times. Set in an isolated hamlet, the novel unfolds over the course of a few rain-soaked days. Only a dozen inhabitants remain in the bleak village, rank with the stench of failed schemes, betrayals, failure, infidelity, sudden hopes, and aborted dreams. Their world, in the words of the renowned translator George Szirtes is rough and ready, lost somewhere between the cosmic and tragic, in one small insignificant corner of the cosmos. Theirs is the dance of death. Into this world comes, it seems, a messiah
