About this title: PRATER VIOLET is the story of the filming of an unashamedly romantic and commercial musical about old Vienna. This stinging satirical novel skewers the film industry, trifling studio feuds, and the fatuous movie, the eponymous PRATER VIOLET, which ironically counterpoints the tragic events on the world stage as Hitler's lengthening shadow falls over the real Vienna of the 1930s. At its center are vivid portraits of the mocking genius Friedrich Bergmann, an imperious, dazzlingly witty Austrian director, and his disciple, a genial young screenwriter--the fictionalized Christopher Isherwood.
