Metropole
Ferenc Karinthy
A linguist flying to a conference in Helsinki has landed in a strange city where he can't understand a word anyone says. As one claustrophobic day follows another, he wonders how he'll get by in this society that looks so familiar, yet is strange. In a vision of hell, Budai must learn to survive in a world where words and meaning are unconnected.
