Clear language, spans a lifetime up to 1942, ends with the IRL suicide of the author.
It's about Vienna, by a Jewish Austrian, describes the Jahrhundertwende, WWI, interbellum years, Nazis. Youth, school system, sexual morals, Freud, life as an author. Also, it's fascinating.

There's no hint of that in the book though - it hit me pretty hard when I found out, having shortly finished the book.

Just visited Zweig's house in Salzburg this morning. There's something kind of comfy about his description of typing on a typewriter in bed in winter, hiding his hands under the covers to warm them up between every sentence.

I like Kästner but did never see it as euro canon.

Thanks to you all!!

It's definitely not euro canonical (Emil und die Detektive isn't either I believe, correct me if I'm wrong), although he brings up his pacifist position rather well with it.

Die Leiden des jungen Werther - Goethe
Die Judenbuche - Droste-Hülshoff
Die Weber - Hauptmann
Der gute Mensch von Sezuan - Brecht
all stuff of Kästner
Die Vermessung der Welt - Kehlmann
last but not least Struwelpeter

Faust is surely the better Goethe
