Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.2mb
Overview: The acclaim was enormous after Heimito von Doderer’s second great Vienna-based novel, The Demons, was published in 1956. The author was surprised to find critics compare his book to works by Dante, Tolstoy, Balzac and Dostoevsky.
One year later, with the second edition of his Demons, Doderer’s portrait was emblazoned on the cover of news magazine Spiegel, and the accompanying title story spread across many pages. The author was considered a hot candidate for the Nobel Prize for Literature. He did not receive it.
Nevertheless, Die Studlhofstiege and The Demons are among the most significant novels of big-city life of the 20th century. Heimito von Doderer understood the modern novel as the real work of art of his time, epically broad and large-scale. They are works that are as monumental as a further development of Gothic cathedral architecture, wrote Viennese literary critic Klaus Nüchtern in his study of the author Doderer.
