Stefan Zweig (1881-1942), one of the most prominent intellectual figures of the first third of the 20th century, was a witness, against his will, to the most terrible defeat of reason and the wildest triumph of brutality. As an Austrian, a Jew, a writer, a humanist, and a pacifist, he found himself at the epicenter of the violent seismic shifts that shook the European soil during the first half of the 20th century. He gave testimony to this in this book, before his memory was lost in the darkness. 'The World of Yesterday' describes the fate of a generation overwhelmed by fatality, a portrait of an era of a world that no longer exists.
