Robert K. Massie
Born in Lexington, Kentucky, in 1929, Robert K. Massie studied history at Yale University and Oxford University before embarking on" a highly successful career as writer and editor. Among the publications with which the author has been associated are Newsweek, USA-1, The Saturday Evening Post, The Reporter, Saturday Review, The New York Times Magazine, and The New York Times Book Review. Mr. Massie currently lives in Irvington, New York, with his wife and three children. The affliction of the author's young son by hemophilia inspired Mr. Massie's interest in the tragic drama of Nicholas and Alexandra, whose son also was stricken with the disease. This factor, as many reviewers have commented, gives this brilliant work an added dimension of human understanding rare in the writing of history.

An seinem zur Weltliteratur zählenden Hauptwerk Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften, das von autobiographischen Aspekten mitbestimmt ist, hat Musil seit den 1920er Jahren bis zu seinem Tode fortlaufend gearbeitet, ohne es abschließen zu können.
