About the Story
Young Werther arrives in a new town seeking a simpler life and soon falls deeply in love with Lotte, who is engaged to another man. His letters reveal a mind increasingly unable to reconcile feeling, society, and disappointment.
Goethe made Werther a landmark of European Romanticism through its emotional intensity and intimate voice. The novel explores longing, individuality, and the painful gap between desire and reality.
