One of the great German novelists Joseph Roth, in the last years of Weimar Germany, set out to explore the Jewish communities scattered across Europe and America. Here, translated into English, are his reports of hope, poverty, fear and persecution. This is the first translation of Roth's non-fiction to appear in English.
