The text addresses the catastrophic impact of war and the sweeping changes it wrought on society, especially focused on the events surrounding the year 1906 and its aftermath. It delves into the political tensions and conflicts that led to the collapse of previous world orders, exploring themes of nationalism and the fragility of peace. The opening of the book sets a somber tone, reflecting on the devastating consequences of a recent war that had drenched the world in blood. The narrator contemplates the losses incurred and the broken spirits of soldiers returning from battle, indicating a profound sense of loss in cultural achievements and human lives.
