The original novel of the legendary film "Satantango" by master filmmaker Béla Tarr

An extreme reading experience that tests reality to the point of madness

Renowned translator Yu Zemin takes on the "impossible" and creates a miracle in translation history

In a dilapidated village, a dozen villagers with nowhere to make a living stage a living drama of alcoholism, adultery, voyeurism, betrayal, dreams and broken dreams in the continuous rainy, muddy late autumn season. Indifference and numbness brutally slaughter all vitality, until the appearance of two swindlers ignites everyone's hope, leading them in a repetitive death dance towards an imagined bright future...

The wonderful structure and unique language style of this book make it one of the most mysterious works in literary history, and also a miracle in translation history.
