Be On Your Guard And Take Care Not To Fall In Love!'Visiting An Idyllic German Village, Werther, A Sensitive And Romantic Young Man, Meets And Falls In Love With Sweetnatured Lotte. Although He Realizes That Lotte Is To Marry Albert, He Is Unable To Subdue His Passion For Her And His Infatuation Torments Him To The Point Of Absolute Despair. The First Great Confessional Novel, The Sorrows Of Young Werther Draws Both On Goethes Own Unrequited Love For Charlotte Buff And On The Death Of His Friend Karl Wilhelm Jerusalem. The Book Was An Immediate Success And A Cult Rapidly Grew Up Around It, Resulting In Numerous Imitations As Well As Violent Criticism And Even Suppression For Its Apparent Recommendation Of Suicide. Goethes Sensitive Exploration Of The Mind Of A Young Artist At Odds With Society And Illequipped To Cope With Life Is Now Considered The First Great Tragic Novel Of European Literature. This Edition Includes Notes And An Introduction By Michael Hulse Who Explores The Origins Of The Novel In The Authors Life And Examines Its Impact On European Culture.For More Than Seventy Years, Penguin Has Been The Leading Publisher Of Classic Literature In The Englishspeaking World.
