"Many novels deal with the decline of European civilization during the period between the world wars. But no other novel is as sweeping and yet profound as Doderer's Vienna-based epic. It also makes for a good laugh. The acclaim was enormous after Heimito von Doderer's second great Vienna-based novel, The Demons, was published in 1956. The author was surprised to find critics compare his book to works by Dante, Tolstoy, Balzac and Dostoevsky." - DW
