Stefan Zweig. Novels

The Austrian writer Stefan Zweig, like no one else, managed to frankly and at the same time most tactfully describe the most intimate experiences of a person. Gorky gave the following assessment of this remarkable writer: "Stephan Zweig is a rare and happy combination of the talent of a deep thinker with the talent of a first-class artist." Zweig's short stories are fascinating in plot, full of dramatic intensity and tension. The writer never tires of convincing how defenseless the human heart is, how perverse human destinies are, what accomplishments, and sometimes crimes, passion pushes a person to.
