Publisher's Summary
In the twilight of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a young cavalry officer is invited to a dance at the home of a rich landowner.
There - with a small act of attempted charity - he commits a simple faux pas. But from this seemingly insignificant blunder comes a tale of catastrophe arising from kindness and of honour poisoned by self-regard.
Beware of Pity has all the intensity and the formidable sense of torment and of character of the very best of Zweig's work. Definitive translation by the award-winning Anthea Bell.

Very well narrated book. Nice audible experience.
It's the only novel written by Stephen Zweig, and my very first book by the author that I came across. Very powerful narration wonderfully supported by equally powerful, expressive reading. I am sure you would want to go with the flow of the novel and with Lt. Anton Hofmiller, the protagonist of the story.
