Why read it?
1 author picked Endless Flight as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A touching and sympathetic biography of one of Europe’s greatest twentieth-century writers, best known as the author of The Radetzky March, and an essential introduction to his other novels (too little read in English).
