«Històries d'exili» is a volume of four short novels by Joseph Roth, published by Pagès editors in paperback (264 pages, in Catalan).
The book brings together four narratives written between 1933 and 1936, during the first phase of Joseph Roth's exile in the face of the rise of Nazism. Stories such as «El cap d'estació Fallmerayer» and «El bust de l'emperador» portray the repression and intolerance behind every story of exile.
Translation from German by Pilar Estelrich and Montserrat Franquesa. Number 358 in the Lo Marraco collection. First edition published in Lleida in January 2020.
It is a work for readers of twentieth-century European fiction and of stories about exile and intolerance.
Moses Joseph Roth was a Austro-Hungarian journalist and novelist, best known for his family saga Radetzky March (1932), about the decline and fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, his novel of Jewish life Job (1930) and his seminal essay "Juden auf Wanderschaft", a fragmented account of the Jewish migrations from eastern to western Europe in the aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution. In the 21st century, publications in English of Radetzky March and of collections of his journalism from Berlin and Paris created a revival of interest in Roth.
