Summary "Egy régi udvarház utolsó gazdája; Nők a tükör előtt; A vén szinész" by Pál Gyulai is a collection of novellas written in the early 20th century. This work showcases the author's ability to weave intricate character studies within the context of changing social conditions, as seen through the lens of traditional Hungarian life. The main character, Radnóthy Elek, is portrayed as a once-respected nobleman struggling with the decline of his estate and the rapid changes brought about by historical events. The opening of the collection introduces us to the character of Radnóthy, who returns to his ancestral estate after a prolonged absence due to illness. He is confronted with the stark reality of his family's decline, both physically, as the once-proud estate has fallen into disrepair, and personally, as he grapples with feelings of loss and nostalgia for a past that no longer exists. The narrative delves into his memories, recounting the vibrant life of his household filled with guests and familial warmth, which now stands in stark contrast to his current isolation and sorrow. Radnóthy’s surroundings reflect his internal turmoil, highlighting his struggle to adapt to the new societal landscape that has emerged in the wake of revolution and upheaval.
