Paul Sohar, the English translator, was born in Hungary and educated in the U.S. He started writing full time when he went on disability form a lab job at a drug firm. The fruits of his labor have slowly dropped into about 200 publications in the U.S., UK, and Canada, and eight books of translations (prose, poetry, etc.). He recently co-authored “True Tales of a Fictitious Spy”, a work of creative non-fiction about the Hungarian Gulag in the 1950’s, published by SynergeBooks (2006). His own poetry, too, found its way into a book, “Homing Poems”, by Iniquity Press (2005).

Words from my readers

About Regal

Mária Bátorligeti 

A good novel offers endless possibilities for interpretation/reading. The Regal is such a novel. One of Kinga Lázár's quotes is particularly thought-provoking. "How would I behave in their place?" The question is asked by Tamás, the main character. Yes, it is worth approaching the characters from this point of view, and asking ourselves the question: How would I behave in their shoes?

Dénes Gabriella

The author handles the words, the Hungarian language and our cultural and literary literacy in a very beautiful, apt, surprising or even disconcerting way - all at the same time.

I would recommend this volume to those who are receptive to philosophical poetry.
