Summary
The Esterházys, one of Europe's most prominent aristocratic families, are closely linked to the rise and fall of the Hapsburg Empire. Princes, counts, commanders, diplomats, bishops, and patrons of the arts, revered, respected, and occasionally feared by their contemporaries, their story is as complex as the history of Hungary itself. A fictional chronicle of this family, spanning seven centuries, told by member Péter Esterházy. Some descriptions of sex, violence and some strong language. 2004
