An absorbing, dark, beautifully written novel on the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire written with the melancholy wit and grace of Gogol (New Statesman, The Times)
This deeply moving, deeply philosophical story set in Ukraine touches on timeless themes of uprooted identity, destiny, and loneliness
Widely praised and rarely available in English, Weights and Measures builds on Roth''s most famous work, The Radetzky MarchAmong his final works, this fable about the disintegration of a good man transports us back in time to Eastern Europes borderlands in the early 20th century.
In this haunting and poetic novel, scrupulous artillery officer Anselm Eibenschütz is persuaded by his wife to leave behind his job as an artilleryman in the Austro-Hungarian army and take up a civilian post as Inspector of Weights and Measures in a secluded territory near the Russian borderOnce there, his discipline and quiet dignity begin to dissolve as he encounters a shadowy world of smugglers, fugitives, and runaways.
A deeply felt commentary on the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Weights and Measures registers on both a historical and personal level to portray the slow capitulation of a good man to insidious small-time corruption and to his own destructive passion.
Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: outstanding classic storytelling from around the world, in a stylishly original series designFrom newly rediscovered gems to fresh translations of the worlds greatest authors, this series includes such authors as Stefan Zweig, Hermann Hesse, Ryunosuke Akutagawa and Gaito Gazdanov.
