| Publisher Description: Cora Dulz is a psychiatrist, married and in her mid-thirties, with a husband, a tax consultant, uninterested in anything except cutting articles about unusual deaths out of the newspapers. Professionally Cora's life has reached a state of crisis. Two of her patients have recently committed suicide. Now she has a new patient: Stanislaus Nagy, a young man who is obsessed with the dead opera singer Maria Callas and claims she appears to him in visions. Contrary to professional etiquette she meets him outside the consulting room and falls in love with him. Nagy refuses to have an affair with her. He claims to be the Devil and to have inhabited Callas's black poodle. He disappears, only to be found by Cora performing in a variety theatre as a magician under the name of the Great Bagarozy. Helmut Krausser blends reality, fantasy and the supernatural in very bizarre and unusual ending. |
