Reader comments
A world literary masterpiece! I wanted to read it when I was young, and it was only when I got older that my dream came true! The masterpiece of the poet Goethe is a poetic and dream-like novel with a profound aftertaste. Criticized the feudal hierarchy and eulogized the innocent love of young people! Please cherish life and youth!
When a passionate heart is locked in a cage woven by the entire world, what choice does he have? Intense emotions seem to burst out from the book, and you can get a glimpse of the glorious corner of that era.
This book made me feel Werther's troubles and pain. His love for Lotte was so sincere and touching. At the same time, I can also understand his dissatisfaction and disappointment with society. His suicide is regrettable, but it also makes me think about the meaning of life. This book is very in-depth and made me think more about love and society.
The ending is a bit sad. I won't laugh at the fragility of the protagonist. I can only say that you should be more open-minded when encountering difficulties. After all, you only have one precious life [almost crying] [almost crying] [almost crying]
I read it for writing a thesis, it's very good. [Cry]
