The novel “Lust” opens a postmodernist line in the work of the largest and most “inconvenient” German-language writer of our time, Nobel Prize winner in 2004, Elfriede Jelinek. Jelinek's theme is violence and power in private and intimate life, the role of women in the world of total consumerism, the dominance of myths of ordinary consciousness in relationships between people and the inescapable loneliness of a person in the face of everyday dying. This book can also be defined as an anti-pornographic novel, an evil virtuoso parody of the form and language of pornography, which has overwhelmed and corroded the mind of the modern man in the street. Since AIDS has reached the Alpine resort valley and threatens all lovers of change, Herman, the almighty director of the local factory, has to refuse from prostitutes and limit his sexual diet to one single woman - his wife Gertie. Beautiful-rich-happy Gertie is disgustingly fed up with her husband’s routine, unbearable daily “same thing.” But leaving means losing everything. She regularly tries to run away from home but, as a rule, ends up in the police station. And then one day, on a snowy road, a student picks her up, in a dressing gown and slippers, and... Do you already believe in a happy ending?
