'Salome in Graz' is a novel about storytelling - the story of Salome, in particular, and how it was reshaped over the centuries into, finally, the play by Oscar Wilde and then the opera by Richard Strauss, but also about storytelling more and most generally. It is about how our stories are formed, how they are told, and who tells them. It is about memory, and translation, and textual authority. And it is about passions - literary, romantic, erotic.
