Until My Eyes Are Closed With Shards [a memoir]

Acclaimed as one of the most vivid and evocative autobiographies of the century, Manès Sperber’s trilogy All Our Yesterdays concludes in this final volume. Through the eyes of this eminent European intellectual and activist, we witness the years 1934–1984 including hostility between Croats and Serbs in Yugoslavia, the abortive workers' uprising in Vienna, and Stalin's show trials. Alongside his first-hand accounts of those dark days in Europe, Sperber includes portraits of his numerous friends who include Raymond Aron, Alfred Döblin, Arthur Koestler, André Malraux, and Anna Seghers.
