Brackob\u003c\/b\u003e (Introduction by)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis classic Romanian novel lends valuable psychological insight into the tragic situation confronting minorities in the Austro-Hungarian Empire during World War I. It is the story of Apostol Bologa, a middle-class Romanian officer serving in the Austro-Hungarian army who undergoes a transformation as his sense of national consciousness awakens, leading him to make a critical choice that many faced during this era. The novel is based on the life of the author\\u2019s brother, Emil Rebreanu, a Romanian officer in the Austro-Hungarian army, to whom he dedicated The Forest of the Hanged. The novel\\u2019s protagonist, Bologa undergoes an evolution whereby begins to see beyond class distinction and the veneer of the civilized world. As the hero states, \\u201cThe soul is the same in the peasant girl as in the countess, at all events in its bare essentials. Only the shape has been changed by civilization.\\u201d The inner struggles confronted by Bologa as he confronts the savagery and injustice of war are emotionally portrayed by the author. The Forest of the Hanged is rightfully considered one of the greatest novels in Romanian literature. Liviu Rebeanu (1885-1944) was one of Romania\\u2019s most distinguished literary figures. His novel Ion is considered the first modern Romanian novel. This edition of Rebreanu\\u2019s famous novel, illustrated by talented young artist Phoebe Cho, includes an introduction by A.K.
