Free Download The World of Yesterday: Memoirs of a European by Stefan Zweig , Anthea Bell (Translator)
Stefan Zweig's memoir, The World of Yesterday, 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 passionate, 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 spirit of Zweig's writing in arguably his most important work, completed shortly before his tragic death in 1942.
