Texts by Karl Kraus -- Heine and the consequences -- Nestroy and posterity -- Afterword to Heine and the consequences -- Between two strains of life: final word -- You shouldn't ask.
Franzen presents new translations and annotations of the work of early twentieth-century satirist Karl Kraus, who, via his self-published magazine Die Fackel, "attacked the popular media's manipulation of reality, the dehumanizing machinery of technology and consumer capitalism, and the jingoistic rhetoric of a fading empire"--Dust jacket flap.
