Product Description

Product Description

A young woman is contacted by her mother, begging her to save her father from debtor's jail by visiting an elderly acquaintance in order to borrow money. This novel shows how the demands of her family force Else into the realization that everything has a price and morality has a brittle veneer.

3.0 out of 5 stars Groundbreaking twentieth century fiction., 8 April 2001
Schnitzler explores the dark undercurrent of polite bourgeois society in this story about a young naive girl. Typically modernist characteristics of internalisation and stream of consciousness are interestingly employed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Travel from the full consciousness to the complete unconsciousness, 11 Jan 2009
This strange story explors something new that we had never seen before in any other novel. As I don't want to spoil I just say that it is a travel from the full consciousness to the complete unconsciousness. We follow someone in her mind...

The novelist Arthur Schnitzler was a master in deep psychology of his characters. He was very similar to Sigmond Freud in many respects:
-The two men were both Austrians
-They both were from Vienna
-They were contemporary of each other
-They both were Jewish
-They both were intellectuals
-And they both were interested in psychology but in different ways, one through literature and the other through experimental sciences.Casanova's Return to Venice
