[Quote taken from the back cover] *** Joseph Roth (1894-1939), was an Austrian writer and journalist. He was forced out of his country because of the rise of Nazism. ***The novel (Tarabas: A Guest on Earth, in English) is a fable set early in the Russian Revolution. "Tarabas" is the story of a Russian peasant who, in his youth, is told by a gypsy that it is his destiny to be both a murderer and saint. "Tarabas", a later novel, was written when Roth was living in exile in Paris. Five years later, an alcoholic, he died in a Paris hospital.
