Specificatii
Wes Anderson on Stefan Zweig: I had never heard of Zweig...when I
just more or less by chance bought a copy of Beware of Pity. I
loved this first book. I also read the The Post-Office Girl. The
Grand Budapest Hotel has elements that were sort of stolen from
both these books. Two characters in our story are vaguely meant to
represent Zweig himself -- our Author character, played by Tom
Wilkinson, and the theoretically fictionalised version of himself,
played by Jude Law. But, in fact, M. Gustave, the main character
who is played by Ralph Fiennes, is modelled significantly on Zweig
as well. The post-office girl is Christine, who looks after her
ailing mother and toils in a provincial Austrian post office in the
years just after the Great War. One afternoon, as she is dozing
among the official forms and stamps, a telegraph arrives addressed
to her. It is from her rich aunt, who lives in America and writes
requesting that Christine join her and her husband in a Swiss
Alpine resort. After a dizzying train ride, Christine finds herself
at the top of the world, enjoying a life of privilege that she had
never imagined.But Christine's aunt drops her as abruptly as she
picked her up, and soon the young woman is back at the provincial
post office, consumed with disappointment and bitterness. Then she
meets Ferdinand, a wounded but eloquent war veteran who is able to
give voice to the disaffection of his generation. Christine's and
Ferdinand's lives spiral downward, before Ferdinand comes up with a
plan which will be either their salvation or their doom.Never
before published in English, this extraordinary book is an
unexpected and haunting foray into noir fiction by one of the
masters of the psychological novel.
