Seven Stories Presss and Words Without Borders are giving away two copies of Krisztina Tóth’s stunning new novel EYE OF THE MONKEY! To enter, follow @7storiespress and @wwborders and tag a friend in the comments. One winner will be chosen, US shipping only. Giveaway ends November 7.
Translated from Hungarian by Ottilie Mulzett, Eye of the Monkey begins in the wake of a devastating civil war that led to the formation of the United Regency, an autocracy in an unnamed European country. The ravages of war are sweeping, and the populace has been divided into segregated zones, where the well-off are under mass surveillance and the poor are phantom presences, confined and ghettoized.
On the verge of a nervous breakdown after being followed by a young man for weeks, Giselle, a history professor at the New University, seeks the help of Dr. Mihály Kreutzer, a psychiatrist who is navigating divorce and the recent death of his mother. They soon begin a torrid love affair, but everything is not what it seems. As Giselle begins to unpack her family history and the possible root of her psychological crisis, Dr. Kreutzer, who has ties to some of the most powerful people in the country, possesses ulterior motives of his own.
In Tóth’s deftly woven, polyphonic, and dystopian novel—full of twists, turns, and treachery—we plumb the depths of a fractured, disturbed, and isolated society, as well as the underbelly of social perversions such a society produces. In this intricate web, stories within stories reveal the complicated lives of women and men who struggle to negotiate the networks of power and poverty that have shaped their lives and their relationships to one another.
