This is a posthumous work of the famous Austrian writer Stefan Zweig. After the rise of fascism, he was forced into exile and lived away from his home nation until his death. He wrote this book during that time. Zweig produced a profound account of the significant historical events of his generation in Europe, events that challenged peace and humanity. Zweig evokes the changing times as Europe slid back from peace and prosperity and into destruction and turmoil. This book is a classic work of autobiography, blending one person’s destiny with their times.
