“He again had the sense that all this order, balance and security in his life were really an illusion and a lie”…. “Everything seemed to be slipping from his grasp, everything was becoming increasingly unreal, even his home, his wife, his child, his profession, his very identity.”Originally published in 1926, Rhapsody: A Dream Novel is a psychological novella written by Arthur Schnitzler. Following Doctor Fridolin and his wife, Albertine, Rhapsody: A Dream Novel sees the couple embark on a two-day odyssey in the erotic underworld.One night a successful doctor, Fridolin, and his beautiful wife, Albertine, attend a masked masquerade ball. Seeing naked men and women and propositioned for sex, the lust-filled couple are inspired to make love to one another, and Albertine–in the heat of passion–admits a sexual fantasy she had the previous summer. Taken slightly back, Fridolin admits his own fantasies to his wife and begins to question his place in their marriage, the strength of their love and the middle class life he has found himself living. Filled with erotic fun, secrets, and sensuality, Rhapsody: A Dream Novel is a psychoanalytic novella that explores sexual guilt, fantasy, love and death.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Rhapsody: A Dream Novel is a classic of erotic literature reimagined for modern readers.
