Vea Kaiser will read from her new novel "Fabula Rasa or The Queen of the Grand Hotel" on Tuesday, February 2, 2027, at 6:00 PM in the Sonnenburg Library. The reading is suitable for adults.

In her fast-paced new novel, Vea Kaiser tells the story of a young mother who makes her way in a traditional Viennese hotel, overcoming all obstacles and taking her fate into her own hands.

Vienna, late 1980s: Angelika Moser, raised in a public housing complex as the daughter of the caretaker, spends her free time dancing through the nightlife. At the same time, she loves her job in a new, elegant world: as an accountant at the Grand Hotel Frohner, populated by Viennese originals and guests from all over, she gets involved in dubious financial maneuvers to save the establishment. Suddenly faced with raising a small child alone, Angelika fights for a good life and begins to manipulate invoices. Decades go by – until the numbers come crashing down around her.

Where: Library, Hotel Sonnenburg

Registration is possible at events@sonnenburg.at or at the Sonnenburg reception.

For guests of the Sonnenburg Hotel and Restaurant, participation in the reading is free of charge. If you are only coming for the reading, an entry fee of €5.00 per person will be charged. You can pay this amount directly at the Sonnenburg reception before the event.
