Summary/Abstract: This article is devoted to Stefánia Mándy’s “Egy halott álmaiból” (“From the Dreams of the Dead Woman”), a text that has met little attention so far. Facing the experience of the Shoah, the Hungarian author presents a poem that consists of both poetic and narrative fragments. In search of a language capable of telling or describing her own experiences adequately, Mándy decides to apply surrealism to her memories of a camp, contributing to the unique work that departs from the literary decorum.
