Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A historical fact about this book....
Review: I wrote the first review here of _The Sleepwalkers_.

Since a subsequent reviewer has mentioned Broch's "political activities", perhaps it is relevant here to quote something his son (H.F. Broch de Rothermann) told me: "There are many persons who could have done for the United Nations what my father did, but there is no one who can write the novels which for that reason [i.e., because Broch spent his time and energy on the UN instead of writing...] went unwritten."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: truly outstanding
Review: Sleepwalkers has shaped up to be one of my most favorite books of all time. Broch acutely depicts the dangerous tendency of modern human behavior to become corrupted and blinded by the world around it. His philosophy describes the 20th century completely as it slowly evolves and matures through each of his stories.

A must read for anyone interested in modern works.
