Part two of a four-part Summer 'Read&Succeed' series on Hungarian novelist and 2019 National Book Award winner for Translated Literature László Krasznahorkai. 'The Melancholy of Resistance' (1989) serves as his first creative revision of his first novel 'Satantango' (1985). Cold War darkness descends yet again, but this time Krasznahorkai and his characters see light's return as part of the cosmic harmony and dance.
