520    "The true story of two of the twentieth century's great 
       writers exiled from Nazi Germany to a Belgian seaside 
       resort, and the world they built there: written with a 
       novelist's eye for pacing, chronology, and language--a 
       dazzling work of historical nonfiction. It's the summer of
       1936, and the writer Stefan Zweig is in crisis. His German
       publisher no longer wants him, his marriage is collapsing,
       and his home in Austria has been seized. He's been 
       dreaming of Ostend, the Belgian beach town--a paradise of 
       promenades, parasols, and old friends. So he journeys 
       there with his new lover, Lotte Altmann, and reunites with
       his semi-estranged fellow writer and close friend Joseph 
       Roth, himself newly in love. For a moment, they create a 
       fragile paradise. But as Europe begins to crumble around 
       them, the writers find themselves trapped on vacation, in 
       exile, watching the world burn. In Ostend, Volker 
       Weidermann lyrically recounts "the summer before the dark,
       " when a coterie of artists, intellectuals, drunks, 
       revolutionaries, and madmen found themselves in limbo 
       while Europe teetered on the edge of fascism and total 
       war"--|cProvided by publisher.
