#thehungariansoprano — Public Fediverse posts

May is book's month in Uruguay, May 26th being National Book's Day. I promised to release my books freely in a #FediverseEdition proposal.
I expected to do that in their original language (Spanish).
Translation is a full time professional job which I am not prepared to do. However, some LLM helped me improve a bit my amateur translation attempt of my opera prima The Hungarian Soprano.

The main story is a nonlinear chronology which mirrors the dissonant harmonies of La Traviata.
Its structure forces the reader to become the investigator, piecing together a conspiracy the text refuses to spell out.

It is a historical fiction work covering espionage, arms traffic, government cover-ups spanning South America and Europe during the Yugoslavian wars.

The prose’s clinical tone (dates, decrees, serial numbers) sharpens the horror, making The hungarian soprano's death feel not like fiction, but like history’s darkest aria.

Six more parts await inside covering #fanaticism, #prejudice, #mystery, #psychedelia, #medicaldrama, #travel, #alcoholism, #friendship, #africa, #trans, #MedecinsSansFrontieres, #southamerica, #Brazil, and more.

Hope you enjoy it. If you feel like #commenting, #sharing or #rating it, thanks in advance.

So, this is moving forward. Part three of #TheHungarianSoprano has been added to the free EPUB.

Now I would like to humbly ask for opinions/expert advice from the #lgbtqia community.
It's hard to write without wondering whether you've been careful enough to honor a character.

This third part deals with exile, rights, resilience, prejudice, and fanaticism. The action takes place in Brazil.
Hope the translation captures the original spirit of the writing.

This #easter2025 , following the sharing momentum I'll leave here the second part of my 2021 book The Hungarian Soprano (English translation, historical fiction).

It has been fully crafted using #FOSS and will keep translating it as a humble contribution to the entertainment of our fediverse community.

EPUB-formatted and distributed with an accessible font developed by the Braille Institute under a CC license. The first part is already included in the file, but there are still five to go.

Hope you enjoy it 😀
