À propos de cet audio

In the twilight of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a young cavalry officer is invited to a dance at the home of a rich landowner.

There - with a small act of attempted charity - he commits a simple faux pas. But from this seemingly insignificant blunder comes a tale of catastrophe arising from kindness and of honour poisoned by self-regard.

Beware of Pity has all the intensity and the formidable sense of torment and of character of the very best of Zweig's work. Definitive translation by the award-winning Anthea Bell.

A must-read for literary fans. Stefan Zweig is a gem of a writer that has a deep understanding of human nature. Fantastic translation work too by whoever worked on this.

Classic, timeless themes and deeply moving

This book gripped my attention so much that I was upset whenever I had to pause it.

I couldn't stop listening!
