About This Novel

From 1919 to 1939, during the "Twenty Years' Armistice", a declining Europe was heading for destruction; in other corners of the world, the changes and development of politics, military, culture, science, economy, and social movements were like countless tortuous tributaries, intersecting, converging, and separating, and finally merged into the same ocean. The historical fragments selected in this book include both the theme of "Hitler's rise to power" and "inconspicuous" material such as the "Chaco War". The former is already overly familiar, while the latter seems to be just another reprint of history that keeps repeating itself. The author positions this unpredictable era between change and eternity. Although it is shrouded in the shadow of the two wars, it is difficult to say that these days are peaceful and happy, but the lives of many ordinary people cannot be said to be unbearable. Regardless of personal feelings, the wheel of the times is still turning irreversibly forward. What happened from 1919 to 1939 shaped the current world. Understanding this period of history will help us gain a deeper understanding of the world's current problems and dilemmas. Although it is very difficult, the author is not satisfied with simply recounting historical events, but hopes to use elegant commentary to express his position, especially the issues that concern him most: the fall of Europe and the change of the world. This book also lists important works in related fields to provide convenience for readers who want to read further.
