About this eBook

Author Heyse, Paul, 1830-1914
Title Ein Ring
Credits Produced by Delphine Lettau
Summary "Ein Ring" by Paul Heyse is a novella written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around themes of love, memory, and loss, exploring the profound emotional connections that objects, particularly a ring, can evoke. The narrative focuses on the life of Klärchen, an elderly woman reflecting on her past love and the complexities of her relationships. The plot unfolds through a conversation between Klärchen and her young relative, who is eager to learn about an unusual ring she possesses. As Klärchen reminisces, readers are introduced to her youthful experiences, including her arranged marriage, the genuine affection she held for her husband, and her secret feelings for a young attaché, Gaston, whose unexpected departure leaves her heartbroken. The ring, which contains a lock of hair and bears inscriptions of love and farewell, becomes a poignant symbol of her unforgotten love and the bittersweet nature of her memories. Through Klärchen's reflections, the novella examines the intertwining of love, duty, and the enduring power of cherished mementos. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
