OUR FAMOUS GUEST; MARK TWAIN in VIENNA (1992

Description: You are considering a hardback book, with DJ: OUR FAMOUS GUEST; MARK TWAIN in VIENNA by Carl Dolmetsch; PUBLISHER: Univ of GEORGIA PRESS, Athens GA; a 1992 printing; 362 pages. His 1897 visit, 20 months in Vienna Austria, Europe Although most of Twain's biographers have mentioned his Viennese sojourn (occasioned by his daughter Clara's musical studies), it has remained an unexplored hiatus in his career. Partly because of impressions created by Twain himself, the twenty months he spent in Vienna are often dismissed as uneventful and unproductive. In this work, the author shows the truth to be otherwise. Upon his arrival Twain found all the doors of the celebrity-mad city, from its literary cafto its aristocratic salons, flung wide open to him. Through meticulous research in Viennese newspaper reports as well as in Twain's own journals and writings, Dolmetsch reconstructs the writer's visit in breathtaking detail. The narrative sparkles with accounts of Twain's shrewd manipulation of the Viennese press, his involvements in the city's musical and theatrical life, the attacks he endured from anti-Semtic journalists.
