Lonely Lives

Más información sobre el libro

The play delves into the lives of two sisters, Emma and Minna, living in a small German village at the end of the 19th century. Emma's wealthy but unfulfilling marriage contrasts with Minna's struggles as an unmarried seamstress. Their lives intersect with other villagers, including Minna's love interest, Fritz. Through themes of love, loneliness, and rural hardships, the work captures the essence of human experience. Recognized as a significant piece by Gerhart Hauptmann, it remains a poignant exploration of societal issues still relevant today.
