Marianne Fritz

Marianne Fritz, born in Weiz, Styria, in 1948, died in Vienna in 2007, was a multi-award-winning Austrian author, who radically evaded any sort of publicity throughout her life. She spent most of her adult life in a small apartment in Vienna’s 7th District and devoted herself entirely to her writing. Her major works include Dessen Sprache du nicht verstehst and Naturgemäß I-III, the third volume of which she was writing at the time of her death.
