Karl Emil Franzos

Karl Emil Franzos (25 October 1848 – 28 January 1904) was a popular Austrian novelist of the late 19th century.His works, both reportage and fiction, concentrate on the multi-ethnic corner of Galicia, Podolia and Bukovina, now largely in western Ukraine, where the Habsburg and Russian empires met.

This area became so closely associated with his name that one critic called it "Franzos country".A number of his books were translated into English, and Gladstone is said to have been among his admirers.
