Die Leute von Seldwyla — Band 2 by Gottfried Keller
"Die Leute von Seldwyla — Band 2" by Gottfried Keller is a collection of novellas published between 1873-1875. Set in the fictional Swiss town of Seldwyla, these stories portray a community of charming but reckless citizens who live beyond their means, speculate foolishly, and thrive in youth before falling into bankruptcy. Through satirical comedies and one tragic adaptation of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," Keller crafts vivid portraits of human folly and occasional
redemption, exploring themes of youthful carelessness, social criticism, and the consequences of temperament in this masterwork of nineteenth-century German realism. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
