Radetzky March

The complete Joseph Roth - newly designed as KiWi paperback! "Joseph Roth - one of the best German storytellers. Others have had greater fame in life. His fame will last longer." Hermann Kesten "Every page, every line is like the stanza of a poem, hammered with the most precise awareness of rhythm and melody." Stefan Zweig Joseph Roth's first internationally successful novel "I have known and loved the strange family of the Trottas, about whom I want to tell in my book Radetzkymarsch, the Spartans among the Austrians. In their rise, in their fall, I believe I may recognize the will of that uncanny power which, in the fate of a family, interprets that of a historical power." In this great novel, first published in 1932 and which made him internationally famous, Joseph Roth tells of the downfall of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy.
