The Man Without Qualities, Volume 1A.A. Knopf, 1995 - 1774 pages A major literary event--the long-awaited, new, and first-ever complete translation of the greatest masterpiece of 20th-century German literature. Dazzingly written, ferocious, and ironically intelligent, the novel is set on the eve of World War I, in Vienna, and chronicles the decay and collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and --with utter prescience--the birth of our Age of Anxiety. |
