<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in English by Weidenfeld & Nicolson, New York, 1988"--T.p. verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The most popular work from provocative Austrian Nobel laureate Elfriede Jelinek, <i>The Piano Teacher</i> is a searing portrait of a woman bound between a repressive society and her darkest desires. Erika Kohut is a piano teacher at the prestigious and formal Vienna Conservatory, who still lives with her domineering and possessive mother. Her life appears boring, but Erika, a quiet thirty-eight-year-old, secretly visits Turkish peep shows at night and watched sadomasochistic films. Meanwhile, a handsome, self-absorbed, seventeen-year-old student has become enamored with Erika and sets out to seduce her. She resists him at first--but then the dark passions roiling under the piano teacher's subdued exterior explode in a release of perversity, violence, and degradation.
