    Great experience with OBO. Very professional attitude and respectful customer service. I needed some items exchanged and they not only agreed to exchange them, but also asked me to dispatch the books I had after I receive the books from them. This level of professional behaviour, trust in the customer, and cooperation will make me come to back to this page whenever I need books again. Thanks OBO !

Beware of Pity is Stefan Zweig's only completed novel, and this listing is the English translation by Anthea Bell, who was widely praised for her translations of Zweig. Set in a small Austro-Hungarian garrison town on the eve of the First World War, it follows Lieutenant Anton Hofmiller, a young cavalry officer invited to the home of a wealthy local family.

When Hofmiller makes a thoughtless mistake with Edith, the family's paralysed daughter, his guilt turns into a sense of obligation, and his pity draws him into a situation he cannot control. Zweig explores weakness, compassion and self-deception with remarkable psychological insight. This is literary fiction rather than a romance, and it is ideal for readers of European classics or anyone who enjoyed The Grand Budapest Hotel, which drew inspiration from Zweig.
