The volume Letters, Biographical Documents, Files in the Vienna Edition of the Collected Works of Ödön von Horváth is the first to bring together all the surviving letters and documents from the author's life, also providing insights into the preserved, accessible official files on him. The complete edition of the biographical source material creates many new points of contact for research into Horváth and the literature of the interwar period.
