Publisher's Note
An extraordinary montage of sex and politics, Peter Esterhazy's innovative novel can be seen to prefigure the liberation of Eastern Europe. Written in 1982 and 1983 under what the author calls "small, Hungarian, pornographic circumstances", A Little Hungarian Pornography exists in a context of official falsehood and misinformation, of lies of the body, the soul, and the state, perpetuated in the duality of language.

Industry reviews
"Peter Esterhazy writes memorably of an ugly, oppressed society in which the pornography of lies and deceits has made even normal human contact ambiguous...less a novel than a cumulative series of short takes, filled with all the indecision, self-doubts and monotony that make up the details of daily life in the crumbling world of Hungarian Communism."
New York Times Book Review - James Polk (11/19/1995)
