In this first installment, a large part of the narrative tension generated by Döblin resides in the sharp contrast between the efforts of the Spartacist leader Karl Liebknecht to mobilize the proletariat against the established power and, on the other hand, the pacts that the leader of the assembly of The representatives of the people try to establish with the high military command. A true fresco of the social and political environment of a decisive episode in German history, the 1918 revolution, which precipitated the change from the German Reich monarchy to the Weimar Republic.

Autorenporträt
Alfred Döblin has gone down in the history of universal literature as the author of one of the great novels of the 20th century, Berlin Alexanderplatz, but if this great work has overshadowed the rest of his narrative, it is largely due to the historical context in which his life trajectory developed. Döblin studied medicine and, after specializing in neurology and psychiatry, worked in various asylums and sanatoriums. At the same time, he began his literary career in the expressionist magazine Der Sturm and with the publication of the book of short stories The Murder of a Buttercup, which would be followed by the novels Die drei Sprünge des Wang-lun and Wallenstein, before the success of Berlin Alexanderplatz.
