Maxim Livius hesitates between two sisters, Cécilia and Antonia. To escape from this dilemna, he joins the army. Fifteen days before being demobilized, without explanation, he is transferred to the fortress, in the heart of a mountain. There, men are unaware of their situation, except they must obey an enigmatic Order. The enemy is invisible, the borderline hypothetical : the soldiers wander in a paranoid universe, hanging to a past and absurd certainties. 
The Fortress concentrates ex-Yugoslavia's events, the State decomposition and the civil war, in a single episode. The author oscillates between naturalism and onirism. We find shades of Kafka, Borges, Buzzati, Gracq... 
Robert Hasz was born in 1964 in Voïvodina. In 1991, when the conflict gains this old Yugoslav province where lived the Hungarian minority, he takes refuge in Hungary and settles in Szeged. He also published the garden of Diogène in 2001.
