PRAISE FOR Vienna Twilight
“[T]he best, of Tallis’s Max Liebermann books….the story not only
provides a glimpse of Austrian politics, society, music and
literature at the time but also gives a keen insight into the early
development of Freudian psychoanalysis. The most compelling
feature of the book, however, is the plot….. With numerous
unexpected plot twists, captivating characters, intriguing
intellectual interplay between Reinhardt and Liebermann, and
masterful writing, this is a must-read for all mystery
buffs.” -- Booklist, starred review
“Meticulous…Liebermann's fifth once more folds a nifty mystery into
a fascinating portrait of a unique time. And there's a nice
surprise twist.” -- Kirkus Reviews
