A lavish masked ball roils within the walls of the enigmatic Francia Castle, where guests glide in silk and intrigue. Among them moves Szindbád, a dashing wanderer in a black silk tuxedo, his face hidden behind a crimson veil. He is approached by a striking lady, Georgina Pálházi, whose delicate mask reveals a mix of aristocratic poise and desperate resolve. Their brief exchange hints at a tangled past and a looming danger that threatens her young son.
Georgina confides that her estranged husband, aided by a mysterious figure known as Sármai, intends to seize the child during the night’s festivities. She implores Szindbád’s aid, offering his sharp mind and daring spirit to thwart the plot. As the orchestra swells and the clock edges toward midnight, the castle’s corridors become a stage for secret alliances and hidden motives, inviting listeners to step into a world where elegance masks peril and every whispered promise could alter fate.

A major voice in modern Hungarian literature, he wrote with a dreamy, nostalgic style that turned memory, desire, and everyday life into something haunting and vivid. Best known for the Szindbád stories, he was also a prolific journalist whose work left a lasting mark on 20th-century Hungarian writing.
