Together Dennis Marks and Michael Hoffmann discuss the life and literary work of Joseph Roth and offer their own views, research and observations of the Austrian writer’s career. In Wandering Jew: The Search for Joseph Roth, Dennis Marks travels through Austria and Ukraine in search of the great novelist and journalist, juxtaposing his unique vision with the statelessness of those who live on the frayed edges of Eastern Europe. The book A Life in Letters, translated and edited by Michael Hofmann, is both a stunning biography and moving portrait of the writer as an outsider.
