Description: The Piano Teacher by Elfriede Jelinek Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "Originally published in German as Die Klavierspielerin by Rowholt Verlag, Reinbek, [1983]"--T.p. verso. Publisher Description The most popular work from provocative Austrian Nobel laureate Elfriede Jelinek, The Piano Teacher is a searing portrait of a woman bound between a repressive society and her darkest desires. Erika Kohut is a piano teacher at the prestigious and formal Vienna Conservatory, who still lives with her domineering and possessive mother. Her life appears boring, but Erika, a quiet thirty-eight-year-old, secretly visits Turkish peep shows at night and watched sadomasochistic films. Meanwhile, a handsome, self-absorbed, seventeen-year-old student has become enamored with Erika and sets out to seduce her. She resists him at first--but then the dark passions roiling under the piano teachers subdued exterior explode in a release of perversity, violence, and degradation. Author Biography Works by Elfriede Jelinek include The Piano Teacher (2002), Women as Lovers (1995), Lust (1993), and Wonderful, Wonderful Times (1990), all translated by P.J. Blumenthal and published by Serpents Tail Press. She has received over twenty literary prizes and awards in addition to winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2004.
