Set in the 1920s, this novel charts the rivalry of the two sons of a wealthy banker, one of them a Nazi. It evokes the atmosphere of Berlin in the years before the rise of Nazism, when its society was on the brink of disintegration.

Joseph Roth worked as a journalist following World War I in Vienna and Berlin and was one of the central figures of the opposition to the Nazis. He lived in exile in Paris until his death in 1939, leaving behind thirteen acclaimed novels and numerous stories and essays.
?What Roth sees and hands on is a unique essence, conveying the fragility of what is truly human in us, the ridiculous and the tragic.?(Nadine Gordimer, "The Threepenny Review")
