Six Stories - Stefan Zweig

Stefan Zweig was one of the greatest of all European writers of the short story. With extraordinary economy and verve he conjures up the strange and painful fates of individuals buffeted by the First World War and its grim aftermath. Six of his most famous stories are collected here in brilliant new translations by Jonathan 'The Invisible Collection', 'Episode on Lake Geneva', 'Leporella', 'Buchmendel', 'The Buried Candelabrum' and 'Burning Secret'.
