Joseph Roth's The Emperor's Tomb is a continuation of the saga of the von Trotta family from The Radetzky March.
This novel presents both a powerful, moving look at a decaying society and its journey through World War I and its devastating aftermath, and a story of the erosion of one man's desperate faith in the virtues of a simple life. "Roth details without pity the inner life of the authentic self." --New York TimesDie Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. The haunting sequel to the masterpiece The Radetzky March. As the sun sets on the Austro-Hungarian Empire, young Franz Ferdinand Trotta--cousin to the hero of The Radetzky March--finds himself adrift in a world of aristocratic ease and bohemian decadence. But the year is 1913, and the grand tapestry of Imperial Vienna is about to be torn asunder. From the smoke-filled cafes of a dying capital to the brutal frozen wastes of a Siberian POW camp, Trotta's journey mirrors the collapse of a civilization. Returning to a Vienna he no longer recognizes--a city of breadlines, fractured identities, and rising shadows--he must confront the ultimate erosion of his class and his country. Written in 1938 as the Nazi "Anschluss" loomed, Joseph Roth's final novel is a devastatingly beautiful elegy for a vanished world. It is a story of loyalty, displacement, and the heartbreaking search for a home that no longer exists. This edition preserves the celebrated John Hoare translation, capturing the "eerie, clairvoyant" prose of one of the 20th century's greatest writers.
