Literary critic Marcel Reich-Ranicki portrays seven German-language authors —Schnitzler, Thomas Mann, Döblin, Musil, Kafka, Tucholsky and Brecht— whom he considers precursors of modernity. He analyses their lives and works, reveals their contradictions and weaknesses, and highlights the literary stature and uniqueness of these authors.

For readers interested in literary criticism and in twentieth-century German-language literature.
Marcel Reich-Ranicki was a Polish-born German literary critic and member of the informal literary association Gruppe 47. He was regarded as one of the most influential contemporary literary critics in the field of German literature and has often been called Literaturpapst in Germany. His TV appearances made Reich-Ranicki a household name even among non-readers; in 2010, a survey found that 98% of Germans had heard of him.
