Part 2: ' The nice wife of the policeman ' Part 1: ' The dark side of a counselor's life ' The story about the Austrian state counselor (in German 'Hofrat') is purely fictional and inspired by a dream by the series' author Karin Sawetz .   "Which political party would be a problem for you, Mr. Hofrat?" asks the woman in the interrogation room where she has to face the accusations of the Hofrat.  "None. I can continue my work (he laughs) under any possible constellation. "  "Too bad. I would need a decision-making aid where I should make a cross in a few days," laughs the policewoman's wife.  "You'll soon be laughing on the other side of your face."  "Not as long as I look at you, Mr. Hofrat, and thinking of y...

The 'Bourgeois Desires' were until yet a fictitious story inspired by a dream about sex and crime playing in Austria's security agent and justice scene. 'Woke up!' throws a realistic light from a very personal view on the situation in Austria how it was made generously public in the last around ten days. With this episode entitled 'Woke up!', the 'Bourgeois Desires'-series gets an essential thread spun by fate and written down in a personal note by Karin Sawetz on 25 May, published on 28 May 2019.

Series 'Bourgeois Desires' by Karin Sawetz Part 3: 'Who is the policeman's wife really?' Part 2: ' The nice wife of the policeman ' Part 1: ' The dark side of a counselor's life ' The story about the Austrian state counselor (in German 'Hofrat') is purely fictional and inspired by a dream by the series' author Karin Sawetz .   "The Hofrat is only a perverse civil servant who benefits from the system. He doesn't belong to the far-left nor to the far-right group in our justice and executive system we are observing," she says to her husband, the policeman. "So, what's your advice? Do you have any order by your department?" - "No, currently not. They reacted amused when they heard from the disgusting action of the Hofrat - a typical sociopath - and meant that the rats move on the tracks of the system's weakness across the whole country. They monitor an increasing amount of executions of sea...

Series 'Bourgeois Desires' by Karin Sawetz Part 2: 'The nice wife of the policeman' Part 1: ' The dark side of a counselor's life ' The story about the Austrian state counselor (in German 'Hofrat') is purely fictional and inspired by a dream by the series' author Karin Sawetz .   "A nice woman, friendly and yet distant, has this colleague from the group of civilian investigators at his side," thought the counselor on the occasion of a farewell party of a colleague from the municipal administration into retirement. With the typical bad city wine, the Viennese 'Schmäh' (a sarcastic humour) is well smeared to slip the way down to the terrain where the Austrians feel at home: the sexual potency showing-off. The potency show was underpinned by wordplays referencing that the structure of thinking is caused by the Austrian usage of words. Jokes such as that the word tourism means in Austrian German 'Fremdenverkehr' ...

Series 'Bourgeois Desires' by  Karin Sawetz Part 1: 'The dark side of a counselor's life' The story about the Austrian state counselor (in German 'Hofrat') is purely fictional and inspired by a dream by the series' author Karin Sawetz .   The state counselor is a nice civil servant. He is polite, correct and never had any issues with the law. For sure not! The Hofrat is police jurist and stands for the law and for correctness. His suit attracts no attention by anyone who has sense for style; his whole appearance is uninteresting. The only thing that makes him interesting is his position at the state where people have to pay attention - if they want or not.  Probably this situation - the forced friendliness of people who are working for him, police men and police women, the servility of the ones who were impeached and had to get in contact in the one or other way with him, in combination with the defiance against the person he really is withou...
