'Walpurgisnacht' Summary
Die Geschichte spielt in Prag an der Walpurgisnacht und erzählt von einer Gesellschaft im Hause des Barons Elsenwanger, die durch einen schlafwandelnden Schauspieler gestört wird. Diese unerklärliche Störung löst eine Reihe von unheimlichen Ereignissen aus, die den Alltag der Anwesenden für die nächsten vier Wochen beeinflussen. Die Geschichte spielt in einer Welt voller Geheimnisse und Rätsel, die sich im Schatten des Esoterischen und Fantastischen verbirgt. Meyrinks Schreibstil ist reich an Symbolen und Metaphern, die die Leser in die düstere und geheimnisvolle Atmosphäre der Walpurgisnacht eintauchen lassen. Die Figuren in der Geschichte sind komplex und ambivalent, wobei sich die Grenzen zwischen Realität und Traum verschwimmen. Der Roman beleuchtet Themen wie die Natur des Bösen, die Macht des Unbewussten und die Suche nach Wahrheit in einer Welt voller Illusionen.Book Details
