About This Novel
"Radetzky March" reflects the gradual decline of the Habsburg dynasty through the experiences of four generations of the Trotta family from 1959 to 1916. "Radetzky March" was originally an ode to Radetzky, the Austrian commander who opposed Napoleon around 1813, and to the past of the Habsburg dynasty. The novel is named after this, expressing the author's nostalgia for the past of the empire. It is "an Austrian Requiem" sung by the author. Facing the reality of the 20th century, the author knew that it was impossible to restore the "glory" of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
