Bargain @ $1.99 from small publisher Pushkin Press (couponable @ Kobo, price good for Canada & US, may be price-matched in other stores/regions):
Letter from an Unknown Woman and Other Stories by the late Stefan Zweig (
Wikipedia), a major old school Austrian literature figure (I have two copies on DVD of a French-language film that was adapted from one of his short stories), newly translated by Anthea Bell (
Wikipedia) who if you read the Adventures of Asterix, is one half of the translating team along with Derek Hockridge, and does truly excellent work on those. I will be picking this one up myself.
ETA: It turns out that there's a nicer (but pricier) collection which contains these stories and more, see
this post downthread for details.
These four Stefan Zweig stories newly translated by the award-winning Anthea Bell, are among his most celebrated and compelling work. The titular tale is a devastating depiction of unrequited love, which inspired a classic Hollywood film, directed by Max Ophüls and starring Joane Fontaine.
Elsewhere in the collection, a young man mistakes the girl he loves for her sister, two erstwhile lovers meet after an age spent apart, and a married woman repays a debt of gratitude to her childhood sweetheart. Expertly paced, laced with the acutely accurate psychological detail and empathy that are Zweig's trademarks, this is a powerful addition to Pushkin's growing collection of his work.
