The Radetzky March
The Radetzky March
By Joseph Roth
Introduction by Alan Bance
Translated by Joachim Neugroschel
“Epic . . . brilliantly achieved . . . the portrait of an empty age, an age of gold braid and glitter.”—The New York Times
“One of the most readable, poignant, and superb novels in twentieth-century German: it stands with the best of Thomas Mann, Alfred Döblin, and Robert Musil. Roth was a cultural monument of Galician Jewry: ironic, compassionate, perfectly pitched to his catastrophic era.”—Harold Bloom
By one of the most distinguished Austrian writers of our century, a portrait of three generations set against the panoramic background of the declining Austro-Hungarian Empire. Translated by a three-time winner of the PEN Translation Prize.
