A passionate young artist falls disastrously in love with a woman he can never truly have. What begins as longing soon becomes obsession, drawing him deeper into a world where beauty, desire, and despair are impossible to separate.
Set against the restless intensity of youth, The Sorrows of Young Werther is a timeless portrait of emotional excess — the kind of love that feels larger than life and more dangerous because of it.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) was a German novelist, poet, playwright, and philosopher widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in European literature. His works helped define the Romantic movement, and The Sorrows of Young Werther made him an international literary sensation while he was still in his twenties.
