1919. The revolution is about to end, in part, or in good part, betrayed by the left parties closest to the bourgeois power. The end of the Spartacist revolution is also the end, at once romantic and dramatic to the point of delirium, of Rosa Luxemburg who, dismayed by the barbarism of her times, is imprisoned in 1919 and ends her days receiving the ghostly visits of her dead lover and from Satan himself...Kart Liebknecht, his partner, also succumbs to his worst nightmares, because he is unable to prevent the collapse of the revolutionary ranks and the escalation of violence. The dream of the revolution (and its failure) produces monsters.

About the Author

Alfred D�blin has gone down in the history of universal literature as the author of one of the great novels of the 20th century, Berlin Alexanderplatz, but if this great work has overshadowed the rest of his narrative, it is largely due to the historical context in which his life trajectory developed. D�blin studied medicine and, after specializing in neurology and psychiatry, worked in various asylums and sanatoriums. At the same time, he began his literary career in the expressionist magazine Der Sturm and with the publication of the book of short stories The Murder of a Buttercup, which would be followed by the novels Die drei Spr�nge des Wang-lun and Wallenstein, before the success of Berlin Alexanderplatz.
