Stille Wasser is a novel written by Wilhelm Bernhardt and published in 1899. The title translates to Still Waters in English. The story is set in a small German town and follows the lives of its inhabitants, particularly the wealthy and influential von R������der family. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, class, and social status. The von R������der family is shown to be deeply divided by their own secrets and desires, which threaten to tear them apart. The patriarch of the family, Baron von R������der, is a powerful and respected figure in the community, but his personal life is filled with tension and conflict. His wife, Baroness von R������der, is unhappy in her marriage and seeks comfort in the arms of another man. The novel also follows the story of the young and beautiful Maria, who falls in love with the Baron's son, Carl. However, their relationship is complicated by their different social statuses and the disapproval of Carl's family. Throughout the novel, Wilhelm Bernhardt portrays the complex and often conflicting emotions of his characters with great depth and sensitivity. The novel is a powerful exploration of human nature and the complexities of relationships, set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing society in turn-of-the-century Germany.Anna Von Krane, Hans Hoffmann, Und Ernst Von Wildenbruch.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
