The Radetzky March: Penguin Modern Classics

Autor Joseph Roth Traducere de Joachim Neugroschel
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 ian 2016
NEW STATESMANBOOKS OF THE YEAR 2015

'Sublime ... it inspires a kind of evangelical cult passion among its devotees' Simon Schama

'Roth is Austria's Chekhov' William Boyd

Strauss's Radetzky March, signature tune of one of Europe's most powerful regimes, presides over Joseph Roth's account of three generations of the Trotta family in the years preceding the Austro-Hungarian collapse in 1918. Grandfather, son and grandson are equally dependent on the empire: the first for his enoblement; the second for the civil virtues that make him a meticulous servant of an administration whose failure he can neither comprehend nor survive; the third for the family standards of conduct which he cannot attain but against which he is too enfeebled to rebel.

Recenzii

Roth is Austria's Chekhov
One of the greatest novels written in the last century
One of the most readable, poignant, and superb novels in twentieth-century German: it stands with the best of Thomas Mann, Alfred Döblin, and Robert Musil. Roth was a cultural monument of Galician Jewry: ironic, compassionate, perfectly pitched to his catastrophic era
A masterpiece . . . The totality of Joseph Roth's work is no less than atragédie humaineachieved in the techniques of modern fiction
The best novel is a book that, to my shame, I have only just read. Visiting Vienna earlier in the year, I realised how little I knew about the Austro-Hungarian empire. So I read Joseph Roth's 1932 bookThe Radetzky March(Penguin Classics) and, as soon as I finished reading it, I read it all over again.
