Dream Story HC

Part of the Little Clothbound Classics series, designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith. Like his Viennese contemporary Sigmund Freud, Arthur Schnitzler was a bold pioneer in exploring the dark, tangled roots of human consciousness. His novella tells the tale of a young married man who, after a discussion with his wife about their fantasies, embarks on an eerie nocturnal reverie through Vienna's underbelly — the basis for Stanley Kubrick's final film, Eyes Wide Shut. Translated by J.M.Q. Davies, with an introduction by Frederic Raphael.
