Hello, Vilmos. I really enjoyed the English version of Budapest Noir. I know the city a bit and enjoyed the time and setting especially. When will you other books be translated into English? Judy

Hi Judy,
I'm glad you liked the book and it gives me an extra pleasure that Budapest in this setting and time was an interesting and intriguing place for you to "visit". Actually, there are some negotiations going at the moment regarding the publication of my other novels in English, so I hope that some of them might be available soon. Meanwhile, you can "visit" the city again since the big screen adaptation will hit the theatres this fall and there will be an American distribution as well, I'm told.
Will let you know when I know more about further English language translations.

Hi Vilmos, I have read and enjoyed all your Zsigmond Gordon books. The Budapest vibes were just great. One detail that has been bothering me all the time: Zsigmond is always, always smoking. (He must smell like a walking ashtray.) So I'm curious: are you such a devoted smoker yourself? Or is it just to illustrate the reality of those days?

Hello Vilmos! I read your books in Finnish (really glad they got translated) and I have spent some time in Budapest myself (the reason why I started reading the books is because we have an apartment in Kodály körönd). Were you happy with how the movie turned out? It felt like Zsigmond became a bit of a different person in the movie compared to the books. Are there any plans on making more movies based on the books?
