About This Novel

"The Sorrows of Young Werther" is a work written by Goethe when he was 25 years old. This epistolary novel describes the story of young Werther who fell in love with Lotte, who had been engaged to someone else for a long time. He was heartbroken after his love was frustrated, and because he was incompatible with feudal society, he finally chose to commit suicide when his future was hopeless. Through Werther's experience and feelings about the despicable German society at that time, the book expresses the author's aversion to the feudal moral hierarchy and his strong demand for individual liberation.
