In perhaps his most personal novel, Joseph Roth tells the story of Franz Tunda, an officer in the Austro-Hungarian army, who disappears in Siberia at the end of the First World War. After 10 years of fighting with the Bolsheviks, having affairs with beautiful communists, and eking out a living at the edge of the world, on his eventual return to his native Austria, Franz Tunda finds the old European order has vanished, and there is no place for him any more in the new culture that has taken its place. Everywhere he finds himself an outsider, consigned to a life of social and cultural isolation. Mirroring Roth's own experience of exile, Flight Without End reflects the predicament of the disaffected intellectual who can find no role for himself in a changed world. Part of the new look Peter Owen Modern Classics range featuring a logo crafted by graphic design icon Alvin Lustig.
