The Pendragon Legend; set first in London and then in Wales, is a forerunner of a style currently fashionable, the philosophical thriller, though it combines other modes as well: upper-class comedy, murder-mystery and a ghost story with a compelling love interest. The mystical element, is diffused through an increasingly complex plot, as all threads converge in the final chapters. It is an essentially experimental novel, the fore-runner to Journey by Moonlight, Szerb's quintessential amalgamation of the romantic, the mystical and the transcendental. It is translated by LEN RIX.

Review:
Antal Szerb belongs with the master novelists of the 20th century - PAUL BAILEY, The Daily Telegraph --The Daily Telegraph

May Szerb's entry into our literary pantheon be definitive - ALBERTO MANGUEL, The Financial Times --The Financial Times

Szerb is a master novelist whose powers transcend time and language - NICHOLAS LEZARD, The Guardian --The Guardian

"Szerb was fluent in German and English and greatly interested in unusual religious beliefs. His knowledge of Rosicrucianism and the occult informs this often very funny book, which takes many affectionate potshots at the period's popular fiction. Szerb, who produced a history of English literature, knew his Shakespeare, Blake and Milton, but also the frothier writings of John Buchan, Edgar Wallace and P G Wodehouse" PAUL BAILEY --The Independent

Szerb is a master novelist whose powers transcend time and language - NICHOLAS LEZARD, The Guardian --The Guardian
From the Publisher:
A new translation into English of a classic of Hungarian Literature
