The Door by Magda SzabóMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I confess there were a couple times while reading this book when I thought it was a bit too "in your face", and it probably was. The narrator seemed to take every single detail of the protagonist much too seriously, while the protagonist (Emerence) seemed a bit too superhuman in many ways. But in the end, the book was singular. I probably missed some parallels between the story and Hungary's history. At least that was my feeling.
