Nelio Biedermann's Lázár Novel Chronicles Europe's Changing Generations

Nelio Biedermann wrote a book called Lázár that tells the story of a Hungarian family over three generations.

It starts before World War I and ends in 1956 during the Hungarian Revolution.

The book shows how the family goes from being rich and noble to ordinary people.

The writing is very descriptive and uses lots of metaphors.

Some readers think the book is very ambitious, but they also say the characters feel a bit shallow.
