The novel A Child of Our Times represents Horváth's literary legacy. Just as the novel was going to press, the author was killed by a falling tree branch during a thunderstorm on the Champs Elysées. This volume explains the genesis of the novel from two early precursors and through three different drafts and includes a definitive final version.
