In the heart of Vienna, 1912, four women - Edith, Adele, Gertrude, and Vally - are entangled in a web of love, art, and betrayal. When they become involved with the controversial young artist Egon Schiele, their lives are set on a collision course that will change them forever. "The Women in the Window" is a mesmerizing tale of passion, scandal, and the price of ambition, filled with stunning artwork and unforgettable characters.

Format: Paperback
Publication date: 27 April 2023
Publisher: Transworld


A new century is dawning. Vienna is at its zenith, an opulent, extravagant city teeming with art, music, and radical ideas. It is a place where anything seems possible.

Edith and Adele are sisters, the daughters of a wealthy bourgeois family. They are expected to follow the rules, to marry well, and produce children. Gertrude is in thrall to her flamboyant older brother. Marked by a traumatic childhood, she envies the freedom he so readily commands. Vally was born into poverty but is making her way in the world as a model for the eminent artist Gustav Klimt.

Fierce, passionate, and determined, none of these women is quite what they seem. But their lives are set on a collision course when they become entangled with the controversial young artist Egon Schiele whose work - and private life - are sending shockwaves through Viennese society. All it will take is a single act of betrayal to set their world on fire.
