Szabolcs házassága : Regény

Szabolcs is a sharp‑witted, middle‑aged bachelor navigating the glittering yet precarious world of early‑20th‑century Budapest. He spends his evenings drifting between smoky casino rooms, the stock exchange floor, and the occasional aristocratic soirée, where old acquaintances and new rivals mingle over cards and champagne. When his lively friend Bakó invites him to the upcoming Forgács family ball, Szabolds senses both a chance for diversion and an unspoken pressure to secure a more respectable footing.

As the night of the ball approaches, Szabolcs finds himself torn between the carefree recklessness that has sustained him and the dawning expectation of a settled future. The invitation hints at an encounter with the mysterious Forgács family—wealthy enough to own a ten‑storey mansion and a modest tenement block—raising questions about loyalty, ambition, and the kind of life he truly wants. Listeners are drawn into his inner tug‑of‑war, feeling the excitement of high‑stakes games and the subtle rumblings of a change that could reshape his social standing.
