She broke his heart once before. He won’t give her the chance to do it again. Baron Cranston doesn’t believe in happily-ever-afters. Experience has taught him that love is a risk not worth taking. Forced to marry another man when she was younger, Abigail didn’t know she was carrying Cranston’s child until after he’d entered military service. Now widowed and out of mourning, she is no longer trapped in a union she never wanted. When Abigail tells Cranston about his daughter, she doesn’t expect his proposal. But their marriage of convenience could give her the second chance she never dreamed possible. Now she only needs to convince the cynical baron that his heart isn’t as closed off as he believes.

WINNER OF THE 2019 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR TRANSLATED LITERATURE "Krasznahorkai’s masterpiece" (The Millions); "Apocalyptic, visionary, and mad" (Publishers Weekly); "One of the supreme achievements of contemporary literature" (Paris Review); "Obsessive and visionary" (The New Yorker); "Genius" (The Baffler) At last, the capstone to Krasznahorkai’s four-part masterwork Set in contemporary times, Baron Wenckheim’s Homecoming tells the story of a Prince Myshkin–like figure, Baron Béla Wenckheim, who returns at the end of his life to his provincial Hungarian hometown. Having escaped from his many casino debts in Buenos Aires, where he was living in exile, he longs to be reunited with his high-school sweetheart Marika. Confusions abound, and what follows is an endless storm of gossip, con men, and local politicians, vividly evoking the small town’s alternately drab and absurd existence. All along, the Professor—a world-famous natural scientist who studies mosses and inhabits a bizarre Zen-like shack in a desolate area outside of town—offers long rants and disquisitions on his attempts to immunize himself from thought. Spectacular actions are staged as death and the abyss loom over the unsuspecting townfolk.
