Inhaltsangabe

Rebellion is the story of Great War veteran Andreas Pum, who loses a leg and gains a medal. He marries, plays a barrel organ and is happy. But hen he is imprisoned after a fight, life seems unbearably altered. A chance encounter with an old comrade who has made his fortune introduces Pum to a world where he has a transfiguring experience of justice.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Joseph Roth (1894-1939) was the great elegist of the cosmopolitan, tolerant and doomed Central European culture that flourished in the dying days of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Born into a Jewish family in Galicia, on the eastern edge of the empire, he was a prolific political journalist and novelist. On Hitler's assumption of power, he was obliged to leave Germany for Paris, where he died in poverty a few years later. His books include What I Saw, Job, The White Cities, The String of Pearls, The Emperor's Tomb and The Radetzky March, all published by Granta Books.

Michael Hofmann is a poet and German translator. His most recent collection of poems is One Lark, One Horse. He is a Granta contributing editor.
