Between worlds, seemingly detached from reality, three men navigate through Hermann Broch's magnum opus, set in the era of Wilhelminism, before and during World War I. While the first indulges in nostalgic reveries, the second wanders aimlessly through life, and the third unscrupulously profits from the war. One thing they all have in common is their obliviousness to the impending catastrophe they are blindly heading towards. Broch's trilogy is a precise portrait of a society in relentless decline. Peter Lieck brilliantly reads Broch's psychological epoch novel in its entirety. Unabridged reading with Peter Lieck, 3 mp3 CDs, approximately 30 hours and 10 minutes.
