Download or read book Vienna written by Donald G. Daviau and published by Traveler's Literary Companions. This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Vienna is a city with a storied past - and the stories in this collection give life and breath to that past. As might be expected from fictions about a city that was once home to Sigmund Freud, there is soul searching here, along with a wide range of insights into the human condition. There is humor too, exemplified in the first story, in which a sincere but ill-informed tour guide (mis)leads tourists around Vienna from morning to night. Although the stories are grouped by the city's neighborhoods, you will surely want to trespass these boundaries."--BOOK JACKET.
