Abstract

Endless Flight: The Life of Joseph Roth, by Keiron Pim (Granta, 544 pp., $35) Endless Flight is the first biography in English of Joseph Roth, and that in itself is a sad reflection of native provincialism and ignorance. A German expatriate who became a British poet, Hofmann has translated by my count 15 of Roth's works, including The Radetzky March and lengthy correspondence with Stefan Zweig. An editor Roth described as an overweight cigar-smoking Social Democrat gave Roth his start. [Extracted from the article]
