In Hungarian literature, which autobiographical work by Péter Esterházy investigates his noble heritage and his painful discovery of his father's role as a state security informer?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Harmonia Caelestis and Javított kiadás
- Step 1: Péter Esterházy published the sweeping family saga Harmonia Caelestis in 2000, and followed it in 2002 with Javított kiadás (Revised Edition) after discovering his father's secret police collaboration. Answer: Harmonia Caelestis and Javított kiadás. Why not the others: Fuharosok is an early novella, Bevezetés a szépirodalomba is an experimental prose collection, and Termelési-regény parodies socialist production novels.
