Description: A literary sensation in Hungary now available in English, György Spiró's masterwork is at once a gripping page-turner, a magisterial historical epic, and a riotous road novel.  Set in the tumultuous first century A.D., Captivity recounts the adventures of Uri, a bookish, hapless young Roman Jew.
