Continuing the story of the two Transylvanian cousins from They Were Counted, this novel parallels the lives of the counts B???lint Ab???dy and L???szl??? Gyer???ffy to the political fate of their country: B???lint has been forced to abandon the beautiful and unhappy Adrienne Miloth, while his cousin L???szl??? continues down the path of self-destruction. Hungarian politicians continue with their partisan rivalries, meanwhile ignoring the needs of their fellow citizens. Obstinate in their struggle against Viennese sovereignty and in keeping their privileges, Hungarian politicians and aristocrats are blind to the fact that the world powers are nearing a conflict so large that it will soon give way to World War I and lead to the end of the world as they know it. They Were Found Wanting is the second novel of the Transylvanian Trilogy published by Mikl???s B???nffy between 1934 and 1940, and it is considered one of the most important Central European narratives of the first half of the twentieth century. Retomando la historia de los dos primos transilvanos que protagonizaban Los d???as contados , esta novela narra c???mo las vidas de los condes B???lint Ab???dy y L???szl??? Gyer???ffy transcurren paralelas al destino pol???tico de su pa???s: B???lint se ha visto forzado a abandonar a la bella e infeliz Adrienne Miloth, mientras que su primo L???szl??? persevera en su empe???o autodestructivo. Entretanto, los pol???ticos h???ngaros contin???an con sus luchas partidistas despreciando las necesidades reales de sus conciudadanos. Obstinados en su pugna contra la soberan???a vienesa y en mantener sus privilegios, los pol???ticos y arist???cratas h???ngaros ser???n incapaces de ver c???mo las grandes potencias se est???n acercando peligrosamente a una conflagraci???n que m???s tarde desembocar??? en la primera guerra mundial y terminar??? con el mundo tal como lo han conocido. Las almas juzgadas es la segunda novela de la Trilog???a transilvana que Mikl???s B???nffy public??? entre 1934 y 1940, y est??? considerada como una de las obras m???s importantes de la narrativa centroeuropea de la primera mitad del siglo XX.
