Freiwerber

Freiwerber

by Otto Roquette

Friedrich Stievel, a shy teacher at a local high school, finds himself in a predicament when he decides to propose to the beautiful Berta. His timidity leads him to seek help from his friend Theobald Spaatz to act as his 'Freiwerber' (a person who acts as a go-between in courtship). However, Theobald's attempts to help prove hilariously inept, creating a series of comic misunderstandings and misadventures. The novel explores themes of love, friendship, and the challenges of overcoming shyness in a lighthearted and humorous manner.
