Albert László from page images generously made available by the Hungarian Electronic Library "Indiában" by Waldemar Bonsels is a travel memoir written in the early 20th century. It follows a European traveler on the Malabar Coast, mixing lush nature writing, philosophical musing, and gently ironic encounters with people and animals. Early on, the narrator settles near Cannanore with his servant Panja, the taciturn cook Pasa, and a dog named Elias, observing local customs, wildlife, and the sea. The opening of the narrative finds the German narrator arriving in Cannanore, renting a neglected house from the talkative Rameni, and contending with ants, rats, and a wild garden while relying on Panja and Pasa. A tense night scene unfolds as rats and feral cats battle in his room until a cobra’s chilling appearance stills everything, prompting the narrator’s eerie, rapt reflections. The next morning shifts to fresh coastal light: a cautious visit to the shaded water cistern, a walk through the bazaar and past the British fort, and the start of a routine among local fishermen—casting lines from black rocks, skirting sharks, and contemplating the sea. The section closes with sharp, humane vignettes: rescuing beached sea turtles from slow death and a comic fiasco after he offers to pay for insects, drawing an endless line of townspeople bearing every imaginable bug.
