By the author who inspired Wes Anderson's 2014 film,The Grand Budapest HotelWritten as both a recollection of the past and a warning for future generations,The World of Yesterdayrecalls 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.
