description: Literary Nonfiction. Travel Writing. A work of creative nonfiction, VIENNA VOICES offers a nuanced portrait of the enigmatic "City of Dreams," whose intellectual and artistic culture reached its height at the end of the nineteenth century, only to be eclipsed in the twentieth by the collapse of the Habsburg empire and the rise of National Socialism. "VIENNA VOICES adds incredible dimension and depth to the art of travel writing by recognizing that as travelers we move not only through space, but also through the dimension of time: always experiencing the past within the present, always caught in the flux of personal history as well as the history of a city, always shuttling between the real and the imagined"--Richard Blanco.
