Notes
This is a wonderful story, translated by Peter Zombory-Moldovan, the author's grandson. On being badly wounded after serving on the Eastern Front, the author returned to normal life, which struck him as unspeakably strange. He realised he had witnessed the end of a way of life, of a whole world.
