World of Yesterday (original German title Die Welt von Gestern) is the autobiography of Austrian writer Stefan Zweig, written after he was exiled from Austria in 1934, but not published until 1942.

"When I attempt to find a simple formula for the period in which I grew up, prior to the First World War, I hope that I convey its fullness by calling it the Golden Age of Security." (Zweig, The World of Yesterday)
