Le Parapluie de Saint-Pierre

The blend of satire and insight feels very deliberate, and I wonder what motivated him to use humor as a lens on Hungarian culture and religion.

The witty tone really added layers to the social commentary, but I’m curious if it also made some of the more serious themes easier to digest.

The cultural and historical context seems vital, and I’d love to hear thoughts on how Mikszáth’s environment shaped the narrative and its humor.
