Liliom : a legend in seven scenes and a prologue by Ferenc Molnár
"Liliom: a legend in seven scenes and a prologue" by Ferenc Molnár is a play written in 1909. A tough carousel barker falls in love with a maid in Budapest, but their relationship spirals into bitterness and tragedy. When circumstances push him toward crime, Liliom makes choices that seal his fate. Sixteen years later, he returns from the afterlife for one day, attempting redemption through his daughter—a chance that will determine his
eternal destiny. This Hungarian drama later inspired the beloved musical "Carousel." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
