About this eBook

Author Ehrenstein, Carl, 1892-1971
Title Klagen eines Knaben
Credits Produced by Jens Sadowski
Summary "Klagen eines Knaben" by Carl Ehrenstein is a philosophical novel written during the early 20th century. The book addresses deep existential themes through the experiences of a boy who grapples with his identity, societal oppression, and the quest for meaning in a world filled with violence and suffering. It explores the complexity of life and the burdens of existence, particularly from a juvenile perspective. The narrative unfolds through the introspective thoughts and lamentations of a young boy who endures the harsh realities of life, including servitude and emotional turmoil. The boy's experiences of abandonment, pain, and longing for connection are rendered starkly against the backdrop of a brutal world where love and kindness appear fleeting. Throughout the text, the boy reflects on societal injustices and the futility of traditional education, while he yearns for understanding, love, and a sense of purpose. The work delves deeply into the themes of isolation and the relentless cycle of suffering, presenting a haunting portrayal of a search for solace amidst chaos.
