Péterfy Gergely’s novel The Bullet That Killed Pushkin was one of last year’s most outstanding contemporary literary works, a finalist for the Libri Literary Prize. The author presented the novel on the stage of last summer’s Margó Literary Festival: the conversation held there is fully available for listening on the Margó Spotify channel. In the family saga spanning nearly a century, alongside the afterlife of the aforementioned bullet, diverse topics are explored, such as the transformation of gender identity, the preservation of bourgeois values, and even, related to this, the experience of personal isolation, which has become particularly relevant today. We also discussed the quarantine experience, his connection to antiquity, and even the history of Kisoroszi with the author, in relation to the above topics, on Tuesday’s ‘Connected’ program.
