The Emperor's Tomb (Works of Joseph Roth)

<p><strong><em>The Emperor's Tomb</em> is a nostalgic, haunting elegy for the end of youth and the last days of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.</strong></p> A continuation of the saga of the von Trotta family from The Radetzky March, it is both a powerful and moving look at a decaying society and its journey through the War and its devastating aftermath, and the story of the erosion of one man's desperate faith in the virtues of a simple life.
