Kylmä sydän by Wilhelm Hauff
"Kylmä sydän" by Wilhelm Hauff is a fairy tale published in 1827. Peter Marmot, a poor charcoal burner, yearns for wealth and status. He encounters two forest spirits in the Black Forest: the benevolent glass-imp who grants wishes, and the sinister Dutch-Mike who deals in darker bargains. When Peter's foolish wishes fail him, he makes a fateful deal—trading his warm heart for a cold stone and limitless riches. But without emotion or
empathy, Peter discovers that wealth alone cannot bring happiness or redemption. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
