Title : A Wedding in Lyon - Stefan Zweig - Book
Summary :
Returned to solitude, the one who was mistress of France discovers that she no longer exists without others and without the looks – of love, fear or hatred – that they cast upon her. In 14th-century Germany, where hordes of fanatical "flagellants" are rampant, Jews flee in the heart of winter. A starving soldier walks alone in enemy territory, stumbling at every step against the martyred corpses of his companions...
The incisive author of Amok , the powerful and lucid essayist of Combat with the Demon , focuses on certain historical episodes.
The violence of men, the tragedy of destinies needlessly crushed are inscribed in fiery strokes in each of these sober and powerful stories, reduced to the essential, in the most demanding sense of the word.
