In Marienbad in 1823, the celebrated Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, now a widower, meets the young Ulrike von Levetzow. Walser narrates that impossible attraction due to the age difference and the search for happiness in the final stage of life.
Originally published in 2008, the novel appeared on the longlist for the Deutscher Buchpreis that year.
For readers of historical and romantic fiction, especially those interested in contemporary German literature and the figure of Goethe.
