The Sorrows of Young Werther by Goethe


Angury

Recommended Posts

Has anyone read this beautifully written novel? I'd love to hear other peoples' opinions on it. Personally, I couldn't put it down - I finished it all in one sitting. Despite being so melodramatic, I feel it really captures the moment when one becomes so consumed by a desire, that everything else just becomes dull in comparison.

 

There are so many enchanting passages woven throughout the story, I would really recommend this to anyone who has been considering giving it a go - it's only about a hundred pages long, and I can almost guarantee that it will capture your attention.

 

Has anyone read anything else by Goethe? After becoming encapsulated within his writing, I feel like I must read everything he has ever written.
