I recently heard the writer Mór Jókai referred to as the "Cervantes of the Hungarian language." I'm very interested in reading his work, but I don't know where to start.
Could anyone recommend a specific novel by Jókai that is a good entry point? I'm looking for something that captures his epic storytelling and national spirit, preferably one that has a well-regarded English translation.
What's considered his masterpiece or most accessible book for a new reader?
