Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. In Hebrew. 184 pages. 213 x 137 mm. This is the first book of the trilogy. Hermann Broch was born November 1, 1886 in Vienna, Austria-Hungary and died May 30, 1951 (aged 64) in New Haven, Connecticut. He is considered one of the major Modernists.

He was predestined to work in his father's textile factory in Teesdorf, therefore, he attended a technical college for textile manufacture and a spinning and weaving college. In 1909 he converted to Roman Catholicism and married Franziska von Rothermann, the daughter of a knighted manufacturer. The following year, their son Hermann Friedrich Maria was born.

He was acquainted with Robert Musil, Rainer Maria Rilke, Elias Canetti, Leo Perutz, Franz Blei and his devoted friend and inspiration, writer and former nude model Ea von Allesch and many others. In 1927 he sold the textile factory and decided to study mathematics, philosophy and psychology at the University of Vienna. He embarked on a full-time literary career only around the age of 40.
