At the corner of Masiarska and Zbrojničná, a man sits cross-legged on a chair, quietly observing the people of Košice going about their business. This is no ordinary man, this is a statue to be exact, but the man honoured is the greatest storyteller in the history of Košice. Sándor Márai wrote a whopping 46 books in his time, tales of nostalgia and hope that were largely published in the West before getting the same treatment back home. Stop by the statue to say hello or take a selfie, or both, or neither.
