# La mirinda historio de Petro Schlemihl

By Adelbert von Chamisso.

"La mirinda historio de Petro Schlemihl" by Adelbert von Chamisso is a novella written in 1814. Peter Schlemihl makes a fateful bargain with the Devil, trading his shadow for a bottomless wallet. But wealth means nothing when society shuns a man without a shadow. Rejected by his beloved and consumed by guilt, Schlemihl faces another diabolical proposition: his soul in exchange for his shadow's return. His choice leads him on an unexpected journey of redemption through nature and science. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
