Stefan Zweig (1881-1942)

theranchhands.com dictionary :: Buchmendel :: German-English translation

This is a wonderful story about the power of imagination and passion, the joy that is within us rather than in anything we possess. Ultimately, an uplifting and hopeful story. Letter from an Unknown Woman is my first Zweig… like you I found it very sentimental, uncomfortably pitying the narrator yet strangely compelled to read on. Well, he was a bestselling writer and sometimes he wrote what he thought the public might like… luckily, not most of the time!

It was one of the earliest Zweigs I read and I think it gave me a slightly false impression of him, as his other works seem more powerful and somehow more political. I read it in the Pushkin Press edition of his collected short stories.

Buchmendel

The film is full of emotions, so I can relate to your impressions of the novella. Very interesting reviews as ever, Marina — thank you. The Invisible Collection was really beautiful — avoiding sentimentality somehow. You would certainly like it, then. I remember liking the idea behind it more than the actual book.

Product description

Thank you so much for participating. Those are powerful stories, Marina Sofia, even if Letter… is a bit overblown. Stories like that can keep you thinking long after you finish them, even if they are short. I have the feeling that the s and s did like their bit of melodrama — the soap opera equivalents of their day, I suppose. Luckily, that one is not representative of most of his work, I find. Your thoughts about the other pieces in the book have certainly spurred me towards reading it sooner rather than later!

The contents list of Kaleidoscope 2 is: This may seem like a side step, but I was listening this morning to a radio programme about Emile Zola and it made me realise how little I know about European authors.


  • Contemporaries;
  • Avogadro Corp: The Singularity Is Closer Than It Appears (Singularity Series Book 1)!
  • Pat the Enormous Brat!.

That and then your post on top suggests that perhaps I should make the time to do something about this. I wonder if any of my local reading friends would be interested in a monthly book group with such literature as a focus?


  • Longing to Belong.
  • Revivre! (French Edition)?
  • And the Mind Speaks : Poems-Monologues-Opinions And Lots of Truth!.
  • Jules Vallès artiste : Portraits de contemporains (French Edition)?
  • The Little Gray Wagon?

I must ask around. The comments on Letter… are interesting.
