Companion of the Left Hand review and notes
Hungarian writer George Tabori, in Companion of the Left Hand, shows improved technique with a war torn tale about Stefan Farkas forced to choose sides amid bombing and upheaval in a San Fernando Italian port. The work, praised for style yet seen as a minor Donne like parable, contrasts freedom and loyalty as fate catches up with all.
