Thury Zoltán összes művei (1. kötet) / Ketty és egyéb elbeszélések

A collection of short stories that sketches urban and domestic life through compact episodes of personal struggle and moral choice. The narratives move between cramped apartments, casual encounters, and moments of quiet sacrifice, showing how financial pressures, social expectations, and private longings shape everyday behavior. Recurring motifs include precarious livelihoods, strained relationships between landlords and tenants, artistic aspiration amid poverty, and small mercies or cruelties that reveal character. Tone and form vary from sympathetic realism to ironic observation, presenting a series of human portraits that together map social tensions and intimate emotional responses without privileging a single plot or protagonist.
