Informácie o výstave

The Library presents an extensive collection of books owned by the writer, literary critic and satirist Kornel Földvári and his wife, Naďa. The project's initiator was the writer and director Peter Krištúfek, who was determined to preserve Kornel's extensive book collection and capture his inspiring personality and passion for collecting. Make yourself comfortable and choose from over 11 000 books that you can browse in a pleasant environment designed for studying, relaxation and cultural and social events.

At the same time, this space is a tribute to people who have inconspicuously shaped our intellectual space throughout their lives. Kornel's fondness for the so-called pulp fiction - adventure novels, Westerns and detective stories, was not only about his bold literary taste. For him, the moment of initiation was crucial, the moment that transports you to the world of literature and then opens the door to grand themes and stories. "Boys and girls, read now! It's a genuine thrill, something new that will provide you with profound experiences. If you miss out on those books now, only in adulthood will you understand the importance of reading. However, literature will never give you the same thing that it could give you back then."
