Joseph Roth
Roth's last years were difficult. He moved from hotel to hotel, drinking heavily, and becoming increasingly anxious about money and the future. Despite suffering from chronic alcoholism, he remained prolific until his premature death in Paris in 1939. His novella "The Legend of the Holy Drinker" (1939) chronicles the attempts made by an alcoholic vagrant to regain his dignity and honor a debt.
