“September Memory” by Móra Ferenc. A story of how a bad hail storm in late August nearly changed a poor boy’s life. The storm ruined Móra’s family’s grape crop that would have paid his tuition to his 3rd year at secondary school. He was an excellent student, but his parents were poor and had counted on the income from the grape harvest. In desperation, he snuck into the school and listened in on classes outside the classroom door. Móra Ferenc (1879–1934) became a Hungarian novelist, journalist, and museologist. Selected by P. Vas János.
