Collected Works is the shared intellectual legacy of three generations. This volume condenses the life, work, and spiritual experience of a family - grandfather, father, and son. The essays and writings are not mere recollections of the past, but documents of a human and professional journey: a meeting of inherited knowledge, authentic insight, and new perspective. The book shows how craft, thought, and personal responsibility build upon one another across three generations - how legacy becomes mission. This volume is at once a tribute to those who came before us and a guide for those who follow: a living intellectual heritage that does not end, only continues to be written.
The age of Illusions
The Age of Illusions portrays five decades of Hungarian reality with humor, satire, and painful accuracy - from socialist Hungary all the way to the present. These stories are not told from a distance, but from within: drawn from lived experiences, human situations, and personal destinies. Milan Tresch does not judge - he smiles, asks questions, and holds up a mirror. His characters are all of us: neighbors, co-workers, friends trying to survive eras, regimes, and their own illusions.
The book is more than a social chronicle; it is an insider’s account of a period in which every Hungarian reader will recognize a piece of their own life. It is a true story that does not lose its relevance over time - because it is not about politics, but about people.
Dialogue of Generations is an intimate conversation between father and son - two eras, two perspectives, one shared search for truth. The essays and dialogues are not abstract reflections but real human exchanges: how one understands the world they built, and the other the world they grew up in.
The goal of the book is not persuasion, but understanding. The experience of the past and the questions of the present sit side by side - like two people on a bench, speaking about the same world in different languages, yet with a shared heart.
This is a book that brings generations closer and shows that behind every difference lies the possibility of continuity.
Essays I.
This collection of essays is the intellectual mirror of three generations of the Tresch family. The writings are not only chronicles of an era, but interpretations of how the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries was seen and lived through three different perspectives: the grandfather’s experience, the father’s analytical reasoning, and the son’s open, modern viewpoint.
The work is about the layering of thought — about how knowledge and experience never disappear but take on new forms.
Essays II.
This volume continues the shared intellectual journey begun by the three generations of the Tresch family. These writings speak about inner understanding, the contradictions of human nature, and the reinterpretation of communal responsibility.


The book is deep yet easy to read: philosophical and personal at once, reflective and lyrical. Essays in which past and present, knowledge and emotion merge into a single, clear whole.
