Born in 1905 in the center of the crumbling Austro-Hungarian Empire, Viktor Frankl was a witness to the great political, philosophical, and scientific upheavals of the twentieth century. In these stirring recollections, Frankl describes how as a young doctor of neurology in prewar Vienna his disagreements with Freud and Adler led to the development of "the third Viennese School of Psychotherapy," known as logotherapy; recounts his harrowing trials in four concentration camps during the War; and reflects on the celebrity brought by the publication of Man’s Search for Meaning in 1945.

But it was his tyrannical manager, Vivienne, who was determined to go to any length to model him into the perfect employee. When he resisted, he was quick to realise the terrible consequences for them al

Like many of Shklovsky’s works, Third Factory is not easily classified. In part it is a memoir of the three "Factories" that influenced his development as a human being and as a writer, yet the events depicted within the book are fictionalised and conveyed with the poetic verve and playfulness of form that have made Shklovsky a major figure in twentieth-century world literature. In addition to its fictional and biographical elements, Third Factory includes anecdotes, rants, social satire, literary theory, and anything else that Shklovsky, with an artist’s unerring confidence, choos

Viktor Shklovsky was living in exile in Berlin when he wrote this experimental epistolary novel. In love with Elsa Triolet (referred to as Alya in this novel), Shklovsky was in the habit of sending her several letters a day, a situation Elsa accepted with one condition: he was forbidden from writing about love. ZOO was born out of that constraint and although unrequited love surrounds the letters, their actual subject matter ranges from observations on contemporary Berlin and Russia, to digressions on art and literature and thumbnail portraits of famous Russian writers and artists.
