In their ancient castle by the edge of a forest that compels all who enter it to madness, they succumb to every vice and live only to satiate their desires. But the old order is crumbling, and the days of the Habsburg Monarchy are numbered. When Lajos von Lazar inherits, they at last have a baron who can reignite the old splendours, but not even his abilities are proof against the ravages of war and occupation. It will fall to his children - a boy who talks to shadows and a girl who eschews her blue blood - to find a way to stand against oppression and take the first faltering steps towards freedom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs1844654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs1844654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003eA sweeping epic, taking the reader from the beginning of the twentieth century to the Hungarian National Uprising of 1956, Lazar would be a phenomenal achievement for a writer of any age. With its air of timeless wisdom, it reads like rediscovered classic, making it all the more remarkable that it was written when the author was just twenty-one years old.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs1844654\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs982313B\"\u003eTranslated from German by Jamie Bulloch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs97DFFCB\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Kangaroo Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44106002727000,"sku":"9781529445343","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8343\/1000\/files\/9781529445343_1.jpg?v=1778900390","url":"https:\/\/redkangaroobooks.au\/products\/lazar-by-nelio-biedermann","provider":"Red Kangaroo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
