Jozef Nižnánsky, better known as Jožo Nižnánsky (30 August 1903, Brestovany, Kingdom of Hungary – 7 March 1976, Bratislava, Czechoslovakia) was a Slovak writer and journalist,[1] author of historical novels. His novel Čachtická paní, published in 1933, was the most successful Slovak novel of that year and remains the biggest Slovak bestseller to this day (as of 2021).[2] Andrew Valuchek of the Columbia University stated in his 1937 review for the Books Abroad: The novel is intended as ultra'popular fiction, and has enjoyed a large sale.[3]
