Flesh
Original title: Flesh
Synopsis
Fifteen-year-old Istvan lives with his mother in a modest apartment block in a small Hungarian town. A secret relationship with a married neighbour sets in motion consequences that will shape the rest of his life. After juvenile detention and military service in Iraq, he moves to London and rises from precarious jobs into the worlds of wealth and power. In spare, elliptical prose, David Szalay explores how the body, desire, money and social class propel a life that often seems to unfold beyond its protagonist’s control.
