Världen Av I Går by Stefan Zweig

Erinnerungen eines Europäers

A reflective memoir that evokes the luminous world of fin‑de‑siècle Vienna and wider prewar Europe, describing its rich cultural life, intellectual salons and personal friendships, and tracing how that cosmopolitan order was shattered by war, nationalism and exile; the book mixes vivid recollections of artists and public life with elegiac meditation on loss, displacement and the disappearance of a humane, interconnected Europe.
