In a remote rural region of Hungary, after the fall of the communist regime, the members of a failed agricultural cooperative lead a monotonous life in an almost deserted town, waiting for a miracle. The news of the return of Irimiás, a cunning and charismatic man believed to be dead, awakens hopes and triggers disconcerting events that reveal hidden aspects of the community. This parodic and mordant novel explores hope and the value of promises, inspiring Béla Tarr's cult film and establishing itself as a contemporary classic.
