Description

Mozart's Vienna. A crucible for scientific experimentation and courtly intrigue, as Europe's finest minds vie for imperial favour. In a chaotic private hospital that echoes with the shrieks of hysterical patients, Franz Anton Mesmer is developing a series of controversial cure-alls for body and mind. When asked to help restore the sight of a blind musical prodigy sponsored by the Empress herself, he senses that fame, even immortality, is within his grasp. But what if the girl's blindness is the source of her fragile talent? Mesmer knows he cannot treat her without first gaining her trust: with his methods already the subject of salacious gossip, will their intimacy result in scandal?

About the Author

Alissa Walser ist eine deutsche Schriftstellerin, Malerin und Übersetzerin. Frühe Arbeiten publizierte sie unter dem Pseudonym "Fanny Gold".Sie ist mitSascha Andersonverheiratet.Ihre Prosa dreht sich immer wieder um den Umgang von Menschen miteinander, um Beziehungen zwischen Männern und Frauen, stets auch um die Beziehung zum eigenen Körper, zur Sexualität. In viele ihrer Geschichten fügte die Autorin Zeichnungen ein, die den Text zu unterbrechen scheinen, jedoch die Geschichte auf einer anderen Ebene weiterführen. Diese kleinen linearen Zeichnungen können wie Vexierbilder auf unterschiedliche Weise gelesen werden. Das Zusammenspiel von Bild und Text war ein wesentlicher Aspekt ihrer Arbeit vor 2010.Sie ist die Tochter vonMartin Walserund die Schwester vonJohanna WalserundTheresia Walser.Quelle: wikipedia.de
