Tamás Frei was one of Hungary's best-known and best-loved television personalities, and after leaving the TV career, he founded a coffee chain and devoted himself to writing adventure novels. His latest book will be in stores at the beginning of November, entitled Putsch in Moscow - Putin's last days - André Calvi returns. This new novel focuses on the darkest world political event of our time, the Russian-Ukrainian war, and its imagined consequences, in a way that mixes reality and fiction, because while the international conflict is being resolved, every single character in the book is real - Joe Biden, American President, Emmanuel Macron, French President, Vladimir Putin, Russian President, etc., etc. - but the twists and turns around the key characters and their co-workers, who are also alive and existing, were already created by Frei's imagination.
This new adventure novel gave us the opportunity to invite Tamás Frei to the studio of our podcast once again, to take a look at the not-so-heartwarming processes taking place in the world with him and to talk about, among other things, why it is so important for him to live as long as possible.
