*1,5
Je kan denk ik meer dan de helft van de bladzijden weg halen zodat je een vermakelijk verhaal over houdt maar dan is het geen romantiek meer
"...en sindsdien kunnen zon, maan en sterren huns weegs gaan, ik weet niet of het dag of nacht is, en de hele wereld zinkt om me heen in het niet."

Conocía la historia y todo pero me “sorprendió” cómo estaba armado. Ese tono de “encontramos estas cartas” del editor hablándole al lector o algo así que tiene la segunda mitad me gustó mucho y no me lo esperaba. De Goethe solo había leído Fausto y también lo recuerdo muy moderno. Algo debe haber ahí.
Werther es insoportable, pero pienso que es porque es joven y sufre y podemos empatizar con eso de alguna forma. Todxs hemos estado ahí alguna vez. Me dieron muchas ganas de agarrarlo y decirle amigo, para, vamos a tomarnos un schop. Pobre.

Considered the first Romantic (not to be confused with Romance) novel. A reread for me. I first encountered Goethe during my 1974 summer in Paris. A quick introduction before tackling Faust.

It took me a little while to get into this story about suicide. Goethe doesn't hold back on the angst. Although it was well-written and short, I am not sure how this book could have caused a surge in suicides in the 1770s.

I never heard of this book until it was required reading for a university course. The journey of Goethe's depressed protagonist with a longing for unfiltered, passionate human connections deeply resonated with me. The novel is certainly not without criticism but thanks to this novel and the course, I may have discovered a new appreciation for works of the literary past.

fantastic descriptions of nature, lowkey relatable depression writing, lost me at the end though with the obsession. Poor werther
