Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'One of the great memoirs of the twentieth century' David Hare 'A marvellous recapturing of a Europe that Hitler and his thugs destroyed' John Banville Stefan Zweig's seminal memoir recalls the golden age of pre-war Europe-its seeming permanence, its promise and its devastating fall. Through the story of his life and his relationships with the leading literary figures of the day, Zweig's fervent, evocative prose paints a stunning portrait of an era that danced brilliantly on the brink of extinction. This translation by the award-winning Anthea Bell captures the passionate fluency of Zweig's writing in arguably his most important work, completed the day before his suicide in 1942-a unique elegy for a lost world of peace and security. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Zweig, Stefan. The world of yesterday / translated from the German by Anthea Bell. London: Pushkin Press, 2010. Paperback, near fine. Binding strong and tight; book appears unread. 474pp., contents clean and bright. The World of Yesterday: Memoires of a European has been called the most famous book on the Habsburg Empire. Zweig started writing it in 1934 when, anticipating Anschluss and Nazi persecution, he uprooted himself from Austria to England and later to Brazil. He posted the manuscript, typed by his second wife Lotte Altmann, to the publisher the day before they both committed suicide in February 1942. The book was first published in the original German-language by an anti-Nazi Exilliteratur publishing firm based in Stockholm (1942), as Die Welt von Gestern. It was first published in English in April 1943 by Viking Press. In 2013, the University of Nebraska Press published this translation by the noted British translator Anthea Bell. The book describes life in Vienna at the start of the 20th century with detailed anecdotes. It depicts the dying days of Austria-Hungary under Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria and Karl I of Austria, including literature, the arts, the system of education, and the sexual ethics prevalent at the time, the same that provided the backdrop to the emergence of psychoanalysis. Zweig also describes the stability of Viennese society after centuries of Habsburg rule. RightWayUp Books aims to provide accurate and detailed descriptions.
