Die Stadt ohne Juden: Ein Roman von übermorgen by Hugo Bettauer

"Die Stadt ohne Juden: Ein Roman von übermorgen" by Hugo Bettauer is a novel published in 1922. This satirical work imagines a fictional Austrian politician ordering the expulsion of all Jews from Vienna. As the city initially celebrates, the economy soon crumbles—theaters go bankrupt, businesses suffer, and without Jews to blame, the ruling party collapses. Bettauer's darkly prophetic entertainment became his most commercially successful work, selling 250,000 copies in its first year while earning him both devoted admirers and dangerous enemies.
