Stranger

by August von Kotzebue

The Stranger, originally titled 'Menshenhass und Reue', is a sentimental drama by August von Kotzebue. It tells the story of a man known only as The Stranger, who arrives in a small town with a mysterious past. His arrival stirs up emotions and reveals secrets, particularly for the Haller family. The play explores themes of love, loss, guilt, and redemption, as the characters grapple with the consequences of past actions and the possibility of forgiveness. The Stranger's true identity and his connection to the Haller family are gradually unveiled, leading to a climax of emotional intensity and ultimately a path towards healing.
