'gotischen Zimmer' Summary
The Gothic Room is a novel by August Strindberg, first published in 1904. It is a sequel to Strindberg's earlier novel, The Red Room, and continues the story of the main characters, Arvid Falk and Gert. The novel is set in Stockholm in the 1890s, and follows the characters as they navigate the social and political changes of the time. The novel is a satire of Swedish society, and Strindberg uses his characters to critique the hypocrisy and materialism of the upper classes. He also explores the changing role of women in society, and the rise of the labor movement. The Gothic Room is a complex and challenging novel, but it is also a rewarding one. Strindberg's writing is sharp and witty, and his insights into human nature are profound. The novel is a must-read for anyone interested in Swedish literature, or in the social and political history of the late 19th century.Book Details
