| Hungarian Cultural Center presents A presentation on the poet Attila Jozsef Presented by the translator Gabor Gyukics and Michael Castro Thursday, March 6th, 7:00pm Hungarian Cultural Center, 447 Broadway, 5th Floor, New York, NY 10013 Admission: Free Attila József is regarded by many as Hungary's greatest twentieth century poet. He wrote about the personal and the societal, often with startlingly surreal imagery, or with stark confessional realism. His intense emotional style swung between despair and hope. Ted Hughes, writing of Attila Jozsef, has referred to the "unconsolable howl of his exposure to what had happened and continued to happen . . . counterpointed by a strange elation, a savage sort of elation or even joy." .  Hungarian Cultural Center 447 Broadway, 5th Floor, NYC (T) 212.750.4450 www.culturehungary.org Open hours Monday-Friday, 9-5pm or weekends by appointment |
