New anthology captures the times
of German Jewish writer Joseph Roth,
an author of range and virtuosity.

Jr oseph Roth might be the least-
known great Jewish writer.
A German-language jour-
nalist who reported on Europe
after World War I, he is the author of
14 novels as well as works of nonfic-
tion. He analyzed contemporary socie-
ty and politics, and among his ongoing
themes is the displacement of the Jews
as national borders were redrawn.
In Europe, his work is
widely known, and several
novels have been made
into films in Germany and
Austria.

Moses Joseph Roth was born in 1894
in the town of Brody in Galicia,
Austria-Hungary, in what is now
Ukraine. His town was 70 percent
Jewish and he grew up speaking
German, Yiddish and Polish.
The grandson of a rabbi, he never
knew his own father, who left the family
because he suffered from mental illness.
Roth attended German-speaking
schools and then the universities of
Lemberg and Vienna before serving in
the Austrian army during World War I.
He had a distinguished career as a

journalist for major German-language
newspapers, beginning in Vienna and
later in Berlin, traveling all over
Europe.
In 1924, Roth began publishing
novels, and some of them appeared as
installments in newspapers and maga-
zines. His most highly acclaimed
novel, The Radetzky March, about the
lost world of the Hapsburg monarchy,
was published in 1932.
In his newspaper pieces, Roth
warned of the rise of the Nazis, and

when Hitler came to power, he had to
leave Germany; the Nazis burned his
books.
He moved to Paris where he wrote
for exile publications, criticizing the
Third Reich, and continued to write
fiction. The writer was invited by the
American PEN Club to visit the
United States, but he never did.
He died in Paris in 1939, at the age
of 45, of alcoholism, after suffering
financial hardships. His final novel,

Right and Left and the Legend of the
Holy Drinker, was published that year.
Most of the acclaim for Roth's fic-
tion was posthumous. Now, his work
is published in Holland, France,
Spain, Italy and Great Britain as well
