Description

The Milena Verlag has undertaken to reprint extraordinary books that have long been out of print. In the course of these endeavors, the series Modern Classics was established in the publishing program, which is now being received with great interest by the public and the media. The authors of this book series all had to flee from National Socialism and their works were banned by the Nazis. This book deals with Gina Kaus, born on 21.10.1893, the daughter of a Jewish merchant family in Vienna under the name Regina Wiener. She frequented the intellectual circles of the Viennese coffee houses, where she met the contemporary literary and cultural scene surrounding Franz Blei, Robert Musil, Hermann Broch, Franz Werfel, Otto Gross, Egon Erwin Kisch, Milena Jesenká and her husband Ernst Polak. On 12 March 1938 Kraus fled with her family to Paris. Here she worked as a screenwriter and wrote the novel "Der Teufel nebenan". This novel, written in 1940, was filmed in 1956 with Lilli Palmer and Curd Jürgens in the leading roles under the title "Teufel in Seide" (Devil in Silk) - and became a bestseller. In the novel’s character of the doctor, Dr. Heinsheimer, Kaus set Alfred Adler a literary monument. "She writes almost, if not better than her friend Vicki Baum." (Hilde Spiel)
