In this magnificent collection of Stefan Zweig's short stories the very best and worst of human nature are captured with sharp observation, understanding and vivid empathy. A knock on a door that forces a whole community to take flight, an aging womaniser who meets his match, a love soured into awful cruelty-these stories present a master at work, at the top of his form.Translated by the award-winning Anthea Bell

Drawing on a great wealth of newly available sources, this definitive biography recounts the eventful life of a great writer spoilt by success-a life lived in the shadow of two world wars, and which ended tragically in a suicide pact. Matuschek examines three major phases in the life of the world-famous Austrian author-his years of apprenticeship, his years of success as a professional working writer in Salzburg, and finally his years of exile in Britain, the USA and Brazil. Including the sort of personal detail conspicuously absent from Zweig's memoir, and incorporating newly discovered documents, Matuschek's biography offers us a privileged view into the private world of the master of psychological insight.

A New York Review Books Original In 1905 the young Swiss writer Robert Walser arrived in Berlin to join his older brother Karl, already an important stage-set designer, and immediately threw himself into the vibrant social and cultural life of the city. Berlin Stories collects his alternately celebratory, droll, and satirical observations on every aspect of the bustling German capital, from its theaters, cabarets, painters’ galleries, and literary salons, to the metropolitan street, markets, the Tiergarten, rapid-service restaurants, and the electric tram. Originally appearing in literary magazines as well as the feuilleton sections of newspapers, the early stories are characterized by a joyous urgency and the generosity of an unconventional guide. Later pieces take the form of more personal reflections on the writing process, memories, and character studies. All are full of counter-intuitive images and vignettes of startling clarity, showcasing a unique talent for whom no detail was trivial, at grips with a city diving headlong into modernity.

Elizabeth Hardwick was one of America’s great postwar women of letters, celebrated as a novelist and as an essayist. Until now, however, her slim but remarkable achievement as a writer of short stories has remained largely hidden, with her work tucked away in the pages of the periodicals—such asPartisan Review, The New Yorker, and The New York Review of Books—in which it originally appeared. This first collection of Hardwick’s short fiction reveals her brilliance as a stylist and as an observer of contemporary life. A young woman returns from New York to her childhood Kentucky home and discovers the world of difference within her. A girl’s boyfriend is not quite good enough, his “silvery eyes, light and cool, revealing nothing except pure possibility, like a coin in hand.” A magazine editor’s life falls strangely to pieces after she loses both her husband and her job. Individual lives and the life of New York, the setting or backdrop for most of these stories, are strikingly and memorably depicted in Hardwick’s beautiful and razor-sharp prose.

"The writing of this book about Herzl's journalistic stories answers a need. Because Herzl's feuilletons have not been republished or even translated into English, it is timely in the words of the English scholar Edward Timms that an effort be made to fill this gap." "This gap is largely due to a misunderstanding about the content of his stories as being of relevance to Herzl's Zionist outlook. People have failed to recognize that Herzl "came to his task with the equipment of the perfect feuilletonist." According to Louis Lipsky, the noted American editor, and also Alex Bein, the biographer of Herzl, the journalistic stories were an apprenticeship preparing him for his Zionist work. To his readers' delight, he, Herzl, was able to capture scenery "in a few clear strokes." The lucidity of Herzl's language persuades Jacques Kornberg to suggest that Herzl's stylistic innovations come "close to the style of today's New Yorker magazine." The great variety of Herzl's interests which he presented to his readers assured him of a constant and faithful readership, who, like the authors Arthur Schnitzler and Stefan Zweig, were charmed by his always jourwitty and at times ironic writings that impress us with their relevance."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

The book Marvels of German Short Stories: Rainer Maria Rilke is a carefully selected collection of short stories that showcases Rilke's exceptional ability as one of the most important representatives of German literary modernism. As an exceptional poet, Rilke became one of the most well-known and translated writers in the German language, and this book presents a different facet of his literary talent. The selected stories show a nihilistic influence in a recognition of the reality without comfort of romanticism, the beyond, or social development, but there is also a strange observation of nature, human life, and emotional life. Representing a differentiation crack in modernist stories, these stories explore Rilke's "inner space" and his connection to the external world. For lovers of German literature and modernist short stories, this book is a unique opportunity to delve into Rilke's literary universe and discover new nuances of his writing. With a careful selection of stories and an introduction that contextualizes the work and Rilke's influence, Marvels of German Short Stories: Rainer Maria Rilke is a must-read for anyone who wishes to explore the world of German literature and discover one of the greatest writers in the German language of all time.
