House of Wittgensteins

The Wittgenstein"s House is a saga dedicated to the fate of the brilliant and tragic Viennese family, from which both the famous philosopher and the greatest one -armed pianist in the world came out. It was one of the richest, talented and eccentric families in the history of Europe. The fanatical love of music united Wittgensteins, but the money, madness and vicissitudes of the two world wars sowed the discord. Of the eight children, three committed suicide, Paul lost his hand in the war, but stubbornly followed his calling the musician, and Ludwig, the strange youngest son, is now known as one of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century. Alexander V, himself, from the famous and eccentric family, the author of the Fathers and Sons memoirs, unfolds the bizarre canvas of the history of Wittgensteins with liveliness and depth comparable to Tomas Mann"s Buddenbrooks
