Péterfy Gergely’s award-winning novel is typically a text that can be thoroughly analyzed, even with comprehensive validity. Its narratopoetics, transtextuality, fictionality, discursivity, and ideological nature all represent aspects and offer perspectives that can be effectively explored through professional analytical discourse. The complex analysis that follows is primarily text-centered, meaning it does not read from the author’s name, nor is it reader-oriented, although it strongly dialogues with the extensive reception-historical commentary generated by the novel in question, which will also amplify the critical assessment’s overtones. Thus, the analysis formulates its assertions, wherever possible, in relation to prior professional metatexts. However, due to the characteristics of the text in question, the aspect of historicity and historical reading plays a prominent role in this intended comprehensive interpretation.
