"Különféle magyarok meg egyéb népek" by István Tömörkény is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The work paints a vivid picture of various aspects of Hungarian life and culture through engaging narratives and relatable characters. The stories reflect the challenges, humor, and traditions of rural communities in Hungary. The opening of the collection introduces readers to a particular tale involving a milkman and his horse named Bársony, which has served him faithfully for six years. As the horse falls ill, both the milkman and his wife grapple with the potential loss and financial implications of its demise. The narrative takes a humorous turn as it explores the quirky dynamics between the couple, their financial struggles, and the townspeople's reactions. The scenes set a tone of both lightheartedness and poignancy, establishing Tömörkény's ability to weave social commentary into his storytelling from the very start.
