Benkő László - Kun László a kétszívű - Első kötet

ARC. (Kun) King László is one of the most controversial figures in Hungarian history, who already experienced terrible events in the first decade of his life. His father was at war with his grandfather, and in the country, which resembled a boiling cauldron, nests of fire flared up here and there. His mother was a Kun, from the people who were both cursed and blessed by Hungarian lords and rulers. László began to speak the Kun language, was nursed by Kun women, and grew up among Kuns.
After the death of his father, King István V, he had to learn what it means to be a puppet in the hands of the oligarchs, one of the most powerful of whom perhaps took him hostage with his mother's knowledge. Then came the time when, declaring himself of legal age, he decided to change the way things had been and take control of the country.
But who prevented him from doing so and why? And what did he himself do wrong? According to which interests did the big lords take his side, and from then on could what László wanted really happen?
I wonder why he couldn't say no to the demanding oligarchs? Or didn't he want to? Who influenced him in this? Your family? Is your mother a widow? Or her sister, who was a nun but did not hide the fact that she lived a secular life? Perhaps the Kunis, who considered him to be of their blood, but who did not prove to be acceptable to Hungarian society and the Christian Church at the time?
Today, many things are lost in the mists of time, and no authentic, unbiased chronicle has survived. The novel attempts to answer these questions through a comprehensive analysis of the political conditions of the time.
