PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
This controversial novel, the first of Elfriede Jelinek's published in English, is not for the faint of heart. Written in the present tense, it tells the story of a piano teacher at the Viennese Conservatory who finds herself drawn into a bizarre, violent love triangle. For those not put off by graphic descriptions of sex and violence, this is a powerful story -- terrifying and darkly comic.
