Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. In Hebrew. 184 pages. 213 x 137 mm. This is the first book of the trilogy. Hermann Broch was born November 1, 1886 in Vienna, Austria-Hungary and died May 30, 1951 (aged 64) in New Haven, Connecticut. He is considered one of the major Modernists. He was born to a prosperous Jewish fam…ily and worked for some time in his family's factory, though he maintained his literary interests privately. He was predestined to work in his father's textile factory in Teesdorf, therefore, he attended a technical college for textile manufacture and a spinning and weaving college. In 1909 he converted to Roman Catholicism and married Franziska von Rothermann, the daughter of a knighted manufacturer. The following year, their son Hermann Friedrich Maria was born. Later, Broch began to see other women and the marriage ended in divorce in 1923. He was acquainted with Robert Musil, Rainer Maria Rilke, Elias Canetti, Leo Perutz, Franz Blei and his devoted friend and inspiration, writer and former nude model Ea von Allesch and many others. In 1927 he sold the textile factory and decided to study mathematics, philosophy and psychology at the University of Vienna. He embarked on a full-time literary career only around the age of 40. At the age of 45, his first novel, The Sleepwalkers, was published by Daniel Brody, for the Rhein Verlag in 1931/1932 in Munich. With the annexation of Austria by the Nazis (1938), Broch was arrested, but a movement organized by friends, including James Joyce, managed to have him released and allowed to emigrate; first to Britain and then to the United States, where he finished his novel The Death of Virgil and began to work, similar to Elias Canetti, on an essay on mass behaviour, which remained unfinished.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. Pristine, clean & tight copy, unread in AS NEW condition. "THE SPELL is both a literary masterpiece---the equal, in its way, of Thomas Mann's Magic Mountain---and a book that permanently alters our sense of how the greatest writers of the 20th century responded to Hitler. Set in a small mountain vi…llage, THE SPELL is the story of Marius Ratti, a drifter who arrives and contaminates the village with his virulent, pestilential influence. Ratti is a mesmerizing, Hitler-like figure who preaches a return to primordial simplicity and archaic purity. He preys on the greed of the villagers, twisting them to his own madness. What Broch chronicles is the awakening of the darkest urges of the human spirit and the bestiality of the crowd. Like Kafka, Broch confronts the issue of how art can seriously pursue truth during periods of extreme political terror. THE SPELL is much more than a literary fable; it is a brilliant chronicle of the darker aspects of human nature." Attractive & bright, shiny-covered copy, w/sharp corners & crisp edges, no creases in spine, quite presentable.
