Forgetfulness, fashion and literary resurrection 
What happened in 1999 for what was to rise to the English speaking to Sandor Marai dead for 10 years ? Or what happened to Cease Publication decades ago?
Since 1966 when it was published for the second time in Ancora and Dolphin " view of the chandeliers " had spent a third of a century without translators and editors returned to repair his work, to get to 1999 which saw a real boom of the author and dead.
are really unknown causes for an author whose work already exists and has even become fashionable killed or disappear, then reappear after decades of silence, and supporters who could be soon become a propagandist of works that already existed, not that the originals were hidden in a trunk, is that someone has decided to translate and publish.
I have reviewed the collection to see the first Marai, the first 1931 is " rebels" , following him. "Divorce in Buda" 1944,, "In view of the chandeliers" 1946, "Jealous" 1949, "Music in Florence and "True" 1951. And in collective works collection of stories is that of Villetti 1948, with stories of "Spring Rain " and " star" . And the story of "Adventure in the pastry " of Argos library in a volume of several authors, not Hungarian, and where no record date.
course produces great satisfaction to recover these works and others were cornered, and are not translated so admired then, the issue is that conversely must conclude that the forget sleep many great works that were never translated and that the worst will never be translated.
In other cases, going out of fashion due to saturation editorial, rather than the loss of taste for the work or its author, that I think is the case with my dear Lajos Zilahy whose extraordinary profusion in the English market until the mid-70's of XX century was to stop its publication from 1982 to years in this century in Spain and in Chile before it reappeared as literature children and adolescents in Andrés Bello editorial "Something floats on water" (1998). Reissued in Spain "The prisons of the soul" in 2004 in the soap opera of Being and having been in a bookstore this past summer a new edition of "The Dukay" 2005 in a collection of well-titled Alfaguara modern classics. Being able to happily reinstalled between us at great Zilahy, and in 2006 was reissued a new " prisons of the soul" and this year 2010 a "fatal l Spring." Without that despite the success obtained so far Marai editorial, although it is unpredictable if you reach as it had in the last century.
Although I do not understand the publishing venture to publish a title in the second hand market can be found permanently for 1 euro or 60 cents, as is the case with "The prisons of the soul." Marai's case is different because they have now published works are not translated so far, although "The last meeting" is the same work " view of the chandeliers" and " True" now part of "Women just " .
ADDENDUM TO October 18 .- What drives have 17 copies of the same novel?. While it is true that issues are varied, some are of the same. And surely I will continue buying it if I meet her again. This reiteration of imprisoning many copies of the same book was due in part to comments from a secondhand bookseller of Barcelona, \u200b\u200bsullen and surly treatment that exposes Sundays between other lots a lot of books to 0.60 euros, or 100 pesetas What I was saying, or 20 drives. One day I snapped a copy of the portrayed here at the top, how he sold at that price. And he said that the author did not interest anyone. Well my own and there I decided to redeem the piles Zilahy to balance.

PALLET Illustrations Editorial editions of 1944 Lauro
Addendum October 20 
Pallet Wrapper for the 1 st and 2 nd edition Editorial Lauro April 1944 and August 1944.
Note that I have only one and I got in a volume of the 2 nd edición.La lack of other shows how difficult it is to survive the jacket especially when the cover is scrim and at some point the volume may seem more worn or presented cover and not that it has deteriorated even voluntarily cast off at some point.
In Reno Collection (two copies) the jackets usually have survived until today because the role of them was stronger and against white cardboard cover was strong but less lucid and more soda.
Addendum to October 23 
I like that libraries are not being special in some centers, but ordered classification system and where you never find anybody, and nobody ever comes up steal a copy. I reveled Thursday reviewing the titles located in the Alt Empordà, and quite surprised me his appealing works, although it was not the first time I looked. Then I stumbled on this issue, that while I have, if of course the various works it contains. But what would have happened if it had been completely new content for me? Had tried at least formally a swap. Obviously I took the book that no one controls and even worse to anyone interested, but please do it I did not go without the photo attached.
Some issues that I lack: 
1932, the 1 st it was in South America
1960
Readers Circle
1979 ADDENDUM TO DECEMBER 23, 2010:
The final resurrection of Lajos Zilahy I was always persuaded that some day return. From its ominous
oblivion at the end of the last century were participants, critics, translators, publishers and booksellers, who were responsible for the lethargy, and the flame of his memory we held readers. Started the century began shyly to revenue, and the last day 20 when I bought "Metropolis" by Ferenc Karinthy, saw advertising pages in recent Funambule the publisher announced the creation of the Library Lajos Zilahy, to re-publish their works in a specific collection.
have begun with "deadly Spring" and I had to send a @ a publisher to the inaccuracy of the work is published in Spain in the 50's, when it was in 1938 in Barcelona by publisher Apollo, with the title "Spring mortal," which was what remained in subsequent editions to bring to this space.
addition maliciously or not, speaks of the work " Two captives," referring to the memorable "Jails soul" that venture and that will not hold that title to the letter of truth, but to do justice will be noted in the flap, cover or dust jacket.
Indeed although in this case held the resurrection, do not know to what extent and at the current price of new books worth the editorial effort, when it seems more attractive the idea of \u200b\u200bgetting the release of "mortal Spring" of 1938 the price of 4 euros, and other post for just 1 euro. To me what interested me are the works that are rare or theater stories and I have no " General" or "musical Clowns" for example.
And in Catalan have been published before, in the collection A tot vent at No. 80, 1935 (copies left)
Copies of the center are black rubber, 1938. The three copies of Apollo editorial right are from 1955, and under these in the center of Ballantine Books edition, 1959.
