Synopsis:

The Piano Teacher Elfriede Jelinek Deep passion, thwarted sexuality and love-hate for a mother dominate the life of Erika Kohut, a piano teacher at the Vienna Conservatory. Into this emotional pressure-cooker bounds Walter Klemmer, music student and ladies' man. Jelinek's masterpiece, The Piano Teacher was for Publishers' Weekly "Brilliant and uncompromising."

Review:

"Sexuality and violence are coupled in this brilliant, uncompromising book set in modern-day Vienna....This novel is not for the weak of heart."

Publishers Weekly, 08/12/1988

Review:

"[Elfriede Jelinek] is a brave, bold, savage writer, and her...novel whirls like a tempest in prose. Imagine if "Tropic of Cancer" was written from a woman's point of view, and you can begin to grasp the rawness of emotion on display here."

John Freeman, Pittsburgh Post Gazette, 10/17/2006
