About this book
Village gossip surrounds the marriage of a cartwright and his strikingly beautiful wife in Kisfalu, a village in Pesth county. In the opening story, "Justice or Revenge," Panna forcefully rejects the advances of visiting officers. The account then turns to her family's history of poverty, fierce tempers and grief over her brother's death after a military trial. These details establish a conflict between personal feeling and the authority of the law.
Max Simon Nordau's collection brings together short fiction concerned with motives, emotional habits and the judgments people make about one another. Another excerpt follows Prince Louis, whose wealth and travels leave him bored, and who joins his regiment during the war of 1870 in search of fresh sensations.
