Ripe with love, money, and power, the story of 35-year-old Rudolf--set in a fast-paced, urban environment--begs the question Do we only think we exist? Rudolf and his wife work day and night hoping for a better life--he is a philosophy graduate student and the manager of a car dealership. He also keeps up a heart-wrenching relationship with the chic Wanda. Then there is Nina, who studies logic but is secretly a prostitute, and Alfred, owner of a car-leasing company, seemingly upright, but actually an embezzler. Each character conceals something. Be it in Hungary or North America, the craving for existential clarity remains strong.

In the paradox between achieving your goals and achieving the Impossible Dream, which is preferable? Meanwhile, given a choice, should you opt for cathartic or therapeutic? The Guest House revives old acquaintances and reviews friendships that can’t have a second life, while answering the question of whether it is ever too late to be part of your own coming of age novel. A Minsky Moment? Perhaps, but which Minsky? The Guest House examines the future through the looking glass of the past, without losing sight of the present. And I’m still convinced the inventor of the mute button deserves the Nobel Peace Prize.
