Épépé is a compelling novel by Hungarian author Ferenc Karinthy that delves into science fiction and existentialist literature. The story follows Budai, a linguist who, after taking the wrong flight, ends up in an unknown, overpopulated metropolis where no one speaks a comprehensible language. Trapped in a labyrinth of bureaucracy and anonymous crowds, the protagonist must struggle to maintain his identity and find a way out in a world where communication has ceased to exist.
Ferenc Karinthy was a Hungarian novelist, playwright, journalist, editor and translator, as well as a water polo champion. He authored more than a dozen novels. His father was the writer and journalist Frigyes Karinthy. His mother, the psychiatrist Aranka Böhm, was killed in 1944 in Auschwitz.
