Gloomy Schauermär with morbid eroticism

99 Follow horrors! That alone is a reason to celebrate. Just before the big anniversary episode 100, for once again a work of horror writer Lovecraft Pate stand, Titania brilliant media in the present radio play with a quieter story. The originally penned by the Austrian writer Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, whose last name to the emergence of the concept contributed masochism. This was due to the psychiatrist and neurologist Richard von Krafft-Ebing, who described in his work sexual psychopathology, the abnormalities of human sexuality. That had to serve of Sacher-Masoch for just the name of Leopold, situated on one of his most famous works, namely Venus in Furs, which was last successfully filmed by Roman Polanski.

In Wikipedia we find the following remark to the author:
Masoch was to formulate aesthetically by his imagination and art, instinctive pain and subjugation desire known.

With this sentence, the action of this radio play is aptly described, because ultimately it comes that a young man moving to voluptuous arms of a Femme Fatale with supernatural abilities, even though he is actually already promised another. However, unlike the auspicious, lascivious and mysterious beauty Weroskis fiancée is more a boring wallflower, so that the handsome nobleman soon succumbs to the lure of Marmorweibes, although his engagement ring digs painfully into the flesh of his finger.
Knowingly Weroski goes further into the relationship to the Princess Marina who knows how to make the nobleman with the weapons of a woman docile.

Brought to life the story of an excellent ensemble, which also includes David Nathan, Simon Hunter, Bodo Wolf, Kaspar Eichel and Maria Koschny include that on several occasions were for the label in front of the microphone. Accompanied by ominous piano music, is a gloomy atmosphere soon developed with an almost morbid eroticism, which is mainly due to the acting skill of spokeswoman Antje von der Ahe, representing the Princess Marina here. Although it comes in the 65-minute run time and once or twice to lengths, but history also has its humorous moments perfectly.
So overall a quite addictive listening, which was staged by Titania media once again great.
