The classic of German literature Lyon Feichtwanger napi-
s more than ten historical novels and several plays,
the action of which takes place in different eras and in different
countries
.
And the action-
this one was harsh. "I've learned... a lot of grief and joy,
great successes and heavy defeats, I survived the
the success of Hitler's years, exile, burning and boycott of mybooks
books in some countries, world war ii,-
tration camp and adventurous escape, tricks
..." the writer said of his life.
Emigration was a historic period of a generation' life, a period full of its problems, conflicts and tragic fates. "Waiting room." The works are not connected in a plot, but are united ideologically - it is a kind of chronicle of the "brown plague" that hit Europe in the first half of the 20th century. The author describes the failure of the "beer putsch" in Bavaria, Hitler's rise to power in Germany and the half-starved life of German emigrants who escaped persecution in France.
Creating the novel "Success," Lyon Feichtwanger invested in it not only a huge reserve of observations over the life of post-Versailles Germany, but also his reflections on the fate of the capitalist world. the author is transformed into a series of brilliant sketches of the era of general decline, uncertainty in the future and the pursuit of entertainment and pleasure, then in an occasion for harsh reflections on the place of man at the tipping point of the era.
In the novel "The Upperman Family" Feichtwanger traces the tragedy of the country through the tragedy of a Jewish family. their homeland. In the postscript to "Exile," written in 1939, Feichtwanger, referring to the entire anti-Nazi cycle of the Waiting Room, points out that he "very sharply emphasized the ridiculous, anti-reason edgery" that was used to do so. between the arrogance of his leaders and their gifts." Thus, Adolf Hitler, performing in "Success" under the name of Rupert Kutzner, and the entire early, Munich, stage of the Nazi movement are outlined satirically. As a real political force, besides being meaningful in its historical causality, fascism was first brought out in the pages of this novel, which provided the work with a special place in the world literature. Despite the complex themes raised in the trilogy, the novels are easy to read: the author wrote simply, but wisely. "Art begins where cognition merges with love or hate," Feichtwanger said. He loved life. And he hated evil.
