Stefan Zweig
Stefan Zweig was a renowned Austrian writer of the early 20th century, famous for his novels, plays, biographies, and essays.
His works, including "Beware of Pity" and "Letter from an Unknown Woman," were widely popular across Europe, the US, and South America.
Zweig's writing often focused on psychological themes, influenced by Sigmund Freud's teachings.
He was known for his subtle character portrayals and intuitive biographical works.
Forced into exile by the Nazis in 1934, Zweig eventually settled in Brazil.
Tragically, he and his second wife committed suicide in 1942, overwhelmed by loneliness and disillusionment in their new surroundings.
His literary legacy continues to inspire, with his works recently inspiring the 2014 film "The Grand Budapest Hotel.".
