Reading 'Amos or a Love in Vienna'
What's it about?
Amos, a well-off former biologist and devout Catholic, is torn. His unfulfilled love for Hannah, who impresses him with her independence and depth, does not let go of him. At the same time, he finds comfort and familiarity in Magdalena, a friend from the Weinviertel. His faith also challenges him – as becomes clear in dialogues with Father Raphael on the church square. For Amos, the Bible is a source of strength and guidance, yet faith does not automatically bring happiness in life. In the novel 'Amos or a Love in Vienna,' we immerse ourselves in a year full of emotional developments and theological discourses. These are addressed in well-understood dialogues. The heavy burden of convinced Catholics who have to carry the church abuse scandal is also a topic. The book probably speaks to many. The settings – the vibrant Vienna, an idyllic village in the Weinviertel, and Graz – are brought to life with loving details. Date Wed., November 4, 2026, 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM Speaker Stefan Kronthaler, author and editor of the Vienna church newspaper DER SONNTAG Book available at bookstores and on-site: Stefan Kronthaler, Amos or a Love in Vienna, Verlag Der Apfel, 136 pages, ISBN 978-3-85450-537-2, EUR 23.80.
