NUOVI LIBRI STATESMAN DELL'ANNO 2015 'Sublime. Ispira una sorta di passione evangelica tra i suoi devoti' Simon Schama 'Roth è il Cechov austriaco' La Marcia di Radetzky di William Boyd Strauss, melodia distintiva di uno dei regimi più potenti d'Europa, presiede il resoconto di Joseph Roth su tre generazioni della famiglia Trotta negli anni precedenti il crollo austro-ungarico del 1918. Nonno, figlio e nipote dipendono in egual misura dall'impero: il primo per la sua nobiltà; il secondo per le virtù civili che lo rendono un servitore meticoloso di un'amministrazione il cui fallimento non riesce né a comprendere né a sopravvivere; il terzo per gli standard di condotta familiare che non riesce a raggiungere ma contro i quali è troppo debole per ribellarsi.

Joseph Roth (Author)
Joseph Roth was born in 1894 into a Jewish family living in the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, part of the Austro-Hungarian empire and now split between Poland and Ukraine. He became a successful journalist and travelled widely, eventually becoming best-known for his novels The Radetzky March (also in Penguin Modern Classics), The Emperor's Tomb and The Legend of the Holy Drinker . He died in Paris in 1939.
Grandfather, son and grandson are equally dependent on the empire: the first for his enoblement; the second for the civil virtues that make him a meticulous servant of an administration whose failure he can neither comprehend nor survive; the third for the family standards of conduct which he cannot attain but against which he is unable to rebel.
