Autorenporträt

Stefan Zweig (1881-1942) was born in Vienna, into a wealthy Austrian-Jewish family. He was first known as a poet and translator, then as a biographer. Zweig travelled widely, and was an international bestseller with a string of hugely popular novellas including Letter from an Unknown Woman, Amok and Fear. In 1934, with the rise of Nazism, he moved to London where he wrote his only novel, Beware of Pity. He later settled in Brazil, where in 1942 he and his wife were found dead in an apparent double suicide. Anthea Bell (1936-2018) ranked among the leading literary translators of the 20th and 21st centuries. Her work from German, French and Danish into English encompassed the writings of Kafka, Freud, E.T.A. Hoffmann, the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, Georges Simenon, W.G. Sebald, René Goscinny, Cornelia Funke and many others.
