Das Gefängnis der Wünsche (English: "The Prison of Desires") is a experimental novel by the Swiss author Christoph Geiser. While the heart may be the seat of love, desire, or lust originates in the mind. The novel is difficult to read, as it consists of a kind of stream-of-conscious thought. As the connection between love, lust and prison first brings Marquis De Sade to mind, he is one of the minds being read, the other is Goethe. Diffucult to read, and hard to follow.
