Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman by Stefan Zweig

dark mysterious reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

4.0

I enjoy Zweigs writing style a lot. There were multiple lines I had to highlight, because they were so meaningful or made such a clever comparisons to art or nature. 

The two books I’ve read by him both have dealt with obsession, and I liked how both have ended so differently. The plot of this story focuses on 24 hours, a woman’s single day spent with a stranger. Her story is full of emotions, passion and confusion. 

This read a bit slower than Chess and I was not as hooked on this story. However I did enjoy it a lot and Zweig is for sure one of the authors I want to read more from.
