Márai Sándor

writer Hungary

Márai Sándor was a prominent Hungarian writer born on February 21, 1900, in Kassa (now Košice, Slovakia). He became renowned for his novels and essays that explored themes of identity, belonging, and the complexities of the human experience, particularly in the context of Hungarian history. After his early success as a poet, he transitioned to prose and became known for works such as 'Embers' and 'Casanova in Bolzano'. Márai spent much of his later life in exile, primarily in the United States, where he continued to write despite his longing for his homeland. His struggles with depression and feelings of isolation culminated in his tragic suicide in 1989, on the same day he would have celebrated the 36th anniversary of his death.
