After the devastation of World War I, the West faced a profound crisis of faith and order, leading to a period marked by disillusionment and intense cultural exploration. Amidst the rise of new ideologies and the shattered old world, artists, scientists, and thinkers sought new ways of living and understanding in a time of both despair and innovation. Philipp Blom vividly re-creates this tumultuous era, illustrating the seismic shifts that would influence the modern world.
