"Five of Stefan Zweig's most compelling novellas are presented together in this volume for the first time. Fantastic Night is the story of one transforming evening in the life of a rich and bored young man. Letter from an Unknown Woman is a poignant and heartbreaking tale of the strength and madness of unrequited love; in The Fowler Snared, it is the man whose passion remains unrequited. The Invisible Collection and Buchmendel explore lives led in the single-minded pursuit of art and literature against a backdrop of poverty and war. "--BOOK JACKET.
