The Vanishing Father: Eduard is a Hungarian Jewish railway inspector whose life becomes a series of bizarre obsessions as the shadow of the Holocaust looms. He spends years obsessively writing a massive, encyclopedic international travel guide for railways, buses, and steamships. In the midst of war and persecution, this guide represents his attempt to impose order on a world falling into chaos.

Originally published in Serbo-Croatian (and later in English as Garden, Ashes, translated by William J. Hannaher), the novel forms the first part of Kiš’s “family cycle,” followed by Rani jadi (Early Sorrows) and Peščanik (Hourglass). Together, they fictionalize the author’s childhood: his Jewish father, Eduard Kiš, who perished in Auschwitz; his Montenegrin mother; and their wanderings during WWII in Hungary and Yugoslavia.
