Summary/Abstract: The article reflects in an essayistic form on the representation of eating as a substitute and compensation of real life in the context of Hungarian literature. The author demonstrates how in the works of Gyula Krúdy, Zsigmond Móricz, Lajos Parti Nagy, György Petri, György Spiró, and Péter Esterházy the biological function of life is subsumed by the representation of the consciousness of death in the act of eating.
