Autorenporträt
Krisztina Tóth is one of Hungary's most respected, popular and accomplished writers and an outspoken public intellectual, engaged particularly with the struggle for women's rights and the increasingly severe limits on cultural autonomy in Hungary. Her first collection, published at the age of 22, won the Radnóti prize and she has since garnered a dozen or more major awards for her poetry, prose and (often taboo-breaking) books for children. Her prose is as outstanding as her poetry: she has helped to define the character of both genres in contemporary Hungary. She is also a translator and critic, particularly of French literature, while being widely translated herself: 26 books in 15 languages. In English, some dozen short stories and a volume of prose (Pixel, tr. Owen Good, 2019) are available, while such distinguished poets as George Szirtes and David Hill have published numerous outstanding versions of her poems.
