Like his Viennese contemporary Sigmund Freud, the doctor and writer Arthur Schnitzler
was a bold pioneer in exploring the dark tangled roots of human consciousness. His novella Dream Story tells the tale of a young married man who, after a discussion with his wife about their fantasises, embarks on a eery reverie through Vienna's underbelly.

About Arthur Schnitzler

The extraordinary Viennese writer Arthur Schnitzler (1862-1910) was the son of a prominent Jewish laryngologist. Schnitzler studied medicine at Vienna University, but soon abandoned medicine for writing. From 1895, he attracted public attention as a dramatist. Concentrating on sex and death, his work shows a remarkable capacity to create atmosphere and to pursue profound, ruthless and often Freudian analysis of human motives.
