Psyche, a Romani countess and poet, wanders across Europe during the Napoleonic era in a chauvinistic society that challenges her independence. The first English translation of a one-woman show adapted from the Hungarian book Psyche: Writings of an Erstwhile Poetess by Sandor Weores, written in 1972 under the Soviet regime of Hungary as a pamphlet of censorship. A volume of poems, prose and various documents in which Weores created a fictitious poetess (his own alter ego) living at the beginning of the 19th century, completely recreating the language, style and manners of the period. A self-cleansing in 60 minutes.
