However, the Austrian novelist Stefan Zweig hails from an aristocratic, stilted environment. His distinguished works derive their strength from the weak, tortured self that lies under the weight of suffering and pain. In 1922, his first collection of short stories, A Magical Night and Other Stories, was published in German. Twenty years after its release, the world will read the news of his suicide, his wife, and his dog in Brazilian exile, far from mighty civilizations that were grinding themselves in a crazy global war. In this work, Zweig does not dictate to us the method of making the martyr, but he gives him the location of his human bleeding.
Zweig was not an unknown writer, and it was he who published and wrote about him and took a lot from him during his life and after his departure. Rather, he is one of those to whom the world of today returns, immersed in their insight, to whom he returns to realize himself.
