The Diary of a Lost One is a novel written by Margarete Bohme and published in 1908. The book is a first-person narrative that follows the life of a young woman named Thymian who is born into a wealthy German family. Thymian's life takes a dark turn when her mother dies and her father begins an affair with her governess. Thymian is sent away to a boarding school where she is mistreated by the headmistress and eventually becomes pregnant by a teacher. She is then forced to give up her child and is sent to a mental institution. The book explores themes of social class, gender, and sexuality in early 20th century Germany. The Diary of a Lost One was controversial at the time of its publication due to its frank portrayal of sex and its criticism of the treatment of women in society. The book has since become a classic of German literature and has been adapted into several films and stage productions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
