George Paloczi-Horvath was born in 1908 into the feudal nobility of
Hungary. Despite his privileged background, he came to realize that
his family's wealth was based on the exploitation of a brutalized
peasantry. By the 1930s he was an active anti-Nazi; by 1941 he was
forced to flee the country. Returning after the war, he became a
dedicated communist; but this didn't prevent him from being
arrested, tortured and imprisoned by the communist regime. He spent
1,832 days in prison, many of them in the solitary confinement of
underground prison cells. In 1954 he was eventually released; but
after the Hungarian Revolution he was forced to escape with his
wife and baby for sanctuary in Britain. A new afterword by his
widow, Agi Argent, describes how they survived.
