Summary:
The life of the German-Jewish literary critic and philosopher Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) is a veritable allegory of the life of letters in the twentieth century. This stunning account of his journey to the Soviet Union is a unique among Benjamin's writings for the frank, merciless way he struggles with his motives and conscience.
