By the author who inspired Wes Anderson's 2014 film, "The Grand
Budapest Hotel""
Written as both a recollection of the past and a warning for
future generations, "The World of Yesterday" recalls the golden age
of literary Vienna--its seeming permanence, its promise, and its
devastating fall.
Surrounded by the leading literary lights of the epoch, Stefan
Zweig draws a vivid and intimate account of his life and travels
through Vienna, Paris, Berlin, and London, touching on the very
heart of European culture. His passionate, evocative prose paints a
stunning portrait of an era that danced brilliantly on the edge of
extinction.
This new translation by award-winning Anthea Bell captures the
spirit of Zweig's writing in arguably his most revealing work.
