Vienna in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was one of Europe’s great cultural melting pots. The city was the heart of an empire, its coffeehouses filled with the patter of Czech and Hungarian, as well as the lilting Viennese dialect, and home to a great outpouring of cultural brilliance across music, painting, sculpture, poetry, and much else.
Yet in contrast to Paris, Berlin, and even Oscar Wilde’s London, where the advent of modernity had been accompanied by more relaxed attitudes to queer sexualities, the official Viennese narrative was one of exclusive heterosexuality. And despite the obvious campery of the music of the Waltz Kings, the lavishly decorated cakes in the cafes, and the fabulously ornamental architecture of Imperial Vienna, the laws against homosexual activity in the Habsburg lands were far stricter than elsewhere in Europe.
But in reality, Vienna at the turn of the twentieth century was a deeply queer place—the emperor’s youngest brother was homosexual, the world-famous opera house was designed by a gay couple, Egon Schiele’s circle was filled with queer artists, and the Empress Sisi herself was perhaps no stranger to female love. Set against the vivid backdrop of one of the world’s great cities, and taking in stories from every walk of life—from scheming aristocrats, to lovelorn poets, to misbehaving gay soldiers, to Freud, Mahler, Schiele, Hofmannsthal and many others—The Gay Apocalypse reveals a side of Vienna and the Viennese rarely seen, turning the traditional narrative of the Austrian capital entirely on its head.©2027 Gavin Plumley (P)2027 Hachette Audio
