At the end of the First World War in Germany, the journalist and
theatre critic Kurt Eisner organised a revolution which overthrew
the monarchy, and declared a Free State of Bavaria. In February
1919, he was assassinated, and the revolution failed. But while the
dream lived, it was the writers, the poets, the playwrights and the
intellectuals who led the way. As well as Eisner, Thomas Mann,
Rainer Maria Rilke, and many other prominent figures in German
cultural history were involved. In his characteristically lucid,
sharp prose, Volker Weidermann presents us with a slice of history
- November 1918 to April 1919 - and shows how a small group of
people could have altered the course of the twentieth century.
