Die Leute von Seldwyla — Band 1

by Gottfried Keller

"Die Leute von Seldwyla — Band 1" by Gottfried Keller is a collection of novellas written between 1853-1855. Set in the fictional Swiss town of Seldwyla, these stories paint a satirical portrait of a charming but reckless community where citizens live beyond their means, speculate wildly, and prefer pleasure to hard work. The tales explore the peculiar fates of Seldwyla's inhabitants, from a chronic sulker seeking redemption to a tragic adaptation of Shakespeare's famous lovers transplanted to the Swiss countryside.
