Description
1922 was a year marked by significant upheaval and transformation. Empires began to crumble, new nations emerged, and old certainties were challenged.
The events of 1922 had far-reaching consequences that continue to shape our world today. From the collapse of the Ottoman Empire to the rise of fascist regimes in Italy and Germany, this was a year that saw the dawn of a new era. In literature, modernism reached its peak with the publication of T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land and James Joyce's Ulysses.
In vivid sketches, Nick Rennison brings to life the drama and diversity of 1922, a year that was both tumultuous and transformative. This is a book that offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant years of the 20th century.
