Currently reading. Born in 1862 in the Austrian Empire, Arthur Schnitzler was a Viennese contemporary of Sigmund Freud. His work was controversial at the time due to its dark psychological themes and frank depictions of sexuality, and was often subjected to Anti-Semitic attacks (Schnitzler was Jewish). This slim novel, “Dream Story”, was the inspiration for the Stanley Kubrick film “Eyes Wide Shut.”
