Complete stories
the Stefan Zweig
An event in the bibliographical panorama of one of the most transversal writers among readers.
For the first time in Spanish, we have compiled in a single volume, and in chronological order, all the short stories of the voice that delved into the lights and shadows of 20th century Europe: Stefan Zweig in full. A complete X-ray in creative movement; a portrait full of nuances that broaden our vision and our knowledge of the great Austrian writer, with whom we witness the depths of the human soul from the era of splendor in Vienna at the end of the 19th century, to the horror and despair that came with the two world wars.
A passionate observer, Stefan Zweig delves into the secret world of his characters, who ride between the rational and the uncontrollable, who crumble before their own obsessions. Pursuing a desire to delve deeper into the dark, the passionate, the heroic or the tragic, Zweig builds, under the influence of psychoanalysis, a network in which conflict with oneself and with others coexists and, therefore, with the roots, the crossroads and the destruction to which Europe is doomed.
In Alberto Gordo’s excellent new translation, from stories little known in Spanish to gems such as “Novela de ajedrez”, “Mendel, el de los libros”, “Amok”, or “Sueños olvidados”, this volume is the indispensable literary cathedral in Europe. A heartbreaking look populated by unique stories. All the stories by Stefan Zweig.
