O homem sem qualidades

The characters' introspections feel so nuanced and reflective of a society on the brink of transformation. I wonder what inspired Musil to focus so deeply on internal dialogue.

The layers of meaning and the abstract conversations can be dense, but they also add so much depth. Were there moments when these themes resonated personally?

The city feels like a character itself, embodying the tensions and transitions of the era. I'm curious whether Musil based it on a specific place or history.
