«Schwüle Tage» is a short story by Eduard von Keyserling, published by Fischer in 1991, in paperback (91 pages, in German).
The young protagonist, a count who has failed his Abitur, spends a summer holiday with his father and a mountain of study books. While the father, cold and rational, defends order and discipline, the boy is drawn to the feminine world; amid landscapes of old East Prussia, the narrative unfolds a contained erotic tension and an ironic gaze on the nobility.
The work was published with the subtitle Erzählung and belongs to the Erzähler-Bibliothek collection (number 9312).
For those who enjoy brief, melancholic narratives, imbued with irony about the aristocracy and natural landscapes.
