The Great War is over. Gabriel Dan has been released from a POW camp in Russia and is making his way home to Austria. He comes to an industrial town in Poland and checks in at the once-grand Hotel Savoy, there to await news and funds from his family. Here he meets a kaleidoscope of characters, a microcosm of chaotic post-war Europe in which rich and poor, itinerants, dissidents, and malcontents live lives of hope, expectancy, and despair in an atmosphere pregnant with revolutionary fervor.
Joseph Roth (1894-1939) was an Austrian journalist best known for his family saga The Radetzky March, his novel Job, and his collections of journalistic works. Having lived in Vienna and Berlin, he died, despairing and broke, in Paris in 1939.
