Melzer, dessen Leben irgendwie immer an ihm vorbeiläuft, bis er endlich doch zu sich selbst findet. "Die Strudlhofstiege" ist Heimito von Doderers bekanntestes und beliebtestes Werk. Mit diesem vielschichtigen, von souveränem Humor erfüllten "Roman einer Epoche" hat sich Doderer einen unbestrittenen Platz in der deutschen Literatur geschaffen. Doderers wahrhaftig phänomenaler Roman ist mehr als eine minutiös echte, bezaubernde und sublim-amüsante Schilderung der vielschichtigen Wiener Gesellschaft jener Jahre. "Die Strudlhofstiege" ist ein raffinierter, psychologischer, durch und durch moderner Roman. Doderer erweist sich als geradezu virtuoser Regisseur seiner so zahlreichen Akteure; wie er sie immer wieder zur symbolisch-schicksalhaften Strudlhofstiege zu lotsen weiß, ist eine kompositionelle Meisterleistung. Dazu kommt Doderers köstliche Sprache.
