About This Novel
"The Sorrows of Young Werther" is Goethe's early masterpiece. It tells the story of young Werther who was moved by the temperament and talent of the girl Lotte and fell in love with this girl who had the same soul as his. Lotte was engaged, and Werther could not suppress his inner love, and finally ended his young life in the melancholy of being unable to love. The story takes Werther's love as the main line, but it shows the broad social picture of Germany at that time. The protagonist of the novel yearns for freedom and pursues individual liberation, and is progressive and profoundly critical. The depression of young Werther's life, the melancholy of love, and his romantic and pure feelings have infected thousands of hearts.
