On the eve of the Nazi invasion, Zweig, Austria's most famous writer, went into exile in England with only a card of suitcases.
In London he had neither fame nor friends. Only one room for single living can be rented.
In this room, he lost all his books and all the famous manuscripts he had spent the first half of his life collecting.
At his home in Vienna, Zweig once owned manuscripts of Goethe, Beethoven, Mozart, Balzac, Roman E. Roland's manuscript, Freud's manuscript.
This most splendid blooming scene of European civilization has disappeared forever after the two world wars.
In such a room with nothing, Zweig began to write the memories of his life.
📖 The book "Yesterday's World: Memories of a European" in this episode. Written by Stefan Zweig, translated by Shi Xingguo, published by Wanderer Culture.
🎵 Music Ravel in this episode, "Noble and Sentimental Waltz"
