“Else by Arthur Schnitzler may feel overwritten at times, but it remains an underrated work. The psychological depth and frantic tone are skillfully executed, making for a compelling read. While not necessarily a book to revisit, it’s a must-read at least once, especially for lovers of classic literature.”
