Description
A novel of profound psychological insight, Beware of Pity is a masterful exploration of human emotions. When Captain Hofmiller, a man of great courage, reveals his story, it is one of tragedy rather than bravery. A simple mistake at a dance sets in motion a chain of events that ruins lives, all due to his weak, foolish pity. Stefan Zweig's greatest novel is a deeply nuanced portrayal of the human condition, revealing the subtleties and extremes of human emotion.
