Robert Schneider (16 June 1961) is an Austrian writer, who published novels including Schlafes Bruder, texts for the theatre, and poetry. His works have been translated to many languages. Schlafes Bruder became the basis of a film, a ballet, an opera and several plays, and received international awards. Schneider withdrew from writing in 2007.

Career

Born in Bregenz, Vorarlberg, Austria, Schneider was adopted at age two by a couple of peasants and grew up in the village of Meschach near Götzis, where he still lives as a freelance writer.[1] He studied composition, theatre sciences and art history in Vienna from 1981 to 1986. He discontinued his studies to become a writer, making a living by working as a tourist guide and organist.[2] He received several scholarships for literature.[2]

His first novel, Schlafes Bruder (Brother of Sleep), was rejected by 24 publishers, and finally appeared in 1992 by Reclam in Leipzig.[1] The book, telling the fictional story of the musician Johannes Elias Alder, became an international success, was translated into many languages, and was made part of school canons. A film version was made in 1995, directed by Joseph Vilsmaier, which became the basis for a ballet at the Pfalztheater in Kaiserslautern, an opera by Herbert Willi, and several plays.[1]

Schneider's second novel, {{ill|Die Luftgängerin|de}}, appeared in 1998, dealing with the rise and fall of the fictional town of Jakobsroth in the Rhine valley. The work received scathing reviews.[1][1] Schneider conceived the novels as part of a trilogy, Rheintalische Trilogie (Trilogy of the Rhine Valley). He completed the trilogy with Die Unberührten, published in 2000. Based on historic events, it tells the story of two peasant children who are sent to the United States during the Great Depression.[10] Schneider lived in the US for a while to research there.[1] His novel {{ill|Kristus|de|Kristus (Schneider)}} tells the story of Jan Beukels (John of Leiden), an anabaptist who led the Münster rebellion. Schneider's 2007 novel {{ill|Die Offenbarung|de}} (The Revalation) deals with the find of a score by Bach, which ruins the life of the lucky musicologist from Naumburg.[1]

Schneider named traditional Austrian storytelling until 1945 as the basis for his work.[2] He refuses to comment on his books, saying: "Alles, was ein Schriftsteller über seine Bücher sagt, kann nur verstören. Sie müssen ihren Weg ohne ihn gehen" (Everything an author can say about his books can only unsettle. They have to go their way without him).[3] In an interview in 2014, he said that books are media of the 19th century which do not function anymore.[1]
