Wilhelm Meister by Johann Wolfgang Goethe

Wilhelm Meister by Johann Wolfgang Goethe

Seduced by the chimerical world of the theatre and taking upon himself the grand ambition of becoming a successful performer and dramatist, the merchant's son Wilhelm Meister embarks on a tumultuous quest of self-discovery. Along his path he finds himself having to negotiate love, desire and the need to face up to his own past and responsibilities. A landmark in the history of European literature, Goethe's novel is not only one of the key works of Weimar Classicism and the prototype for the Bildungs-roman genre, but also a timeless tale of coming into one's own and a fascinating portrayal of the late-eighteenth-century theatre world.
