Roth's Collection of Novels 4.Endless Escape

Roth's Collection of Novels 4.Endless Escape (Selected edition) written by Joseph Roth is the fourth volume of the Collection of Roth's Novels, which includes the novel Endless Escapes and the short story Strawberry. Endless Escape is one of the early representative works of Roth. Tongda, the hero of the war, is a lieutenant of the Austrian army. He was captured by the Russians in the first World War, rescued by the poles, and stayed in a remote Siberian farm until the end of the war. On his way back to Vienna via Ukraine, he was rescued from injury and became a member of the Soviet Red Army. Tongda experienced the war and peace at the beginning of the establishment of the Soviet. After the end of his love with Natasha and Arya, he returned to Vienna to find his fiancee Irene. At this time, everything in Europe is different from the past, and he can no longer use his eyes and attitude to integrate into the old life. The novel shows the confusion and loss of the young generation in Europe after the war. Under the background of the great change of the times, it calmly and profoundly writes the individual's hesitation and thinking. Strawberries is a work of the same period by Roth. It describes the living beings of a small city in Eastern Europe with the precise pen and ink of Roth style, and records the last face of the old world before the advent of modern industry and commerce.
