Hungarian Literature in English
A collection of Hungarian books that have been published in English. I'm prioritizing the ones I think are especially good đ But open to suggestions. Also adding our Nobel winners, both of them.

Ooh love this!! Do you have any particular books youâd suggest starting with from this list?
Either Abigail or Love in a Bottle!
All three look like excellent reads! Thank you for the suggestionsâI'm excited to read them :)
But if you like nonfiction, Eminent Hungarians is amazing too
I fell in love with Abigail this year, and I hope to read more Magda SzabĂł and other Hungarian authors - thank you for the list!
Yay! That is great to hear. Honestly I think SzabĂł's best book is The Moment, but sadly that has not been published in English yet :( Only in French
I'm crossing all my fingers that someone translates it into English đ€đ€
