About This Novel
"The Sorrows of Young Werther" is Goethe's important early work. The novel describes the progressive young man Werther who falls in love with the engaged girl Lotte. He feels deeply painful and decides to leave Lotte in the hope of getting relief from his career. However, the filthy, despicable and depressive social environment is incompatible with him. Under the multiple blows of failed love, frustrated career, and being despised by the world, Werther came to the married Lotte for the last time and ended his young life with a bullet.
