DAY 30
The Sorrows of Young Werther
Die Leiden des jungen Werthers
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
Have you ever let your boiling emotions burn entirely without suppressing them with reason?
📝ONGO's Reflection
It is a novel like the fever of youth. When I first read it, I pitied Werther's reckless love, but meeting it again with the years gone by, his pure passion itself strikes me as a wonder. To the eyes of an adult grown used to compromise and calculation, he is a fool. And yet do we not, at times, long for that whirlwind of feeling fierce enough to fling ourselves wholly away? Goethe's flowing sentences set trembling again the romance and ardor that had hardened like fossils within me.
