Summary |
"A barátfalvi lévita; Ujabb elbeszélések" by Mór Jókai is a work of fiction written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a continuation of a previously published story, exploring the fate of characters from Jókai's earlier novel "Elátkozott család," particularly focusing on the mysterious life of a young hero believed to have hidden away in the Bükk mountains. This narrative sets a tone of adventure and intrigue, as it promises to unravel the secrets surrounding the protagonist's past. The opening of the book presents a preface by the author, reflecting on his earlier work and the lingering questions about its characters. Jókai expresses his plans to resolve these mysteries, revealing that the titular character, a young man referred to as a "levita" or Levite, is living in hiding. The story then shifts to a scene set in Miskolc, where the significance of Christmas and the social customs related to it are described. As we meet a variety of characters, including vicispán (vice-prefect) Kadarkuthy, the narrative combines elements of humor, social critique, and rich descriptions, effectively setting the stage for a story imbued with cultural and historical undertones.
