Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Obermann, Vol. 1
Sometimes this mood of ennui re?ects with wonderful clearness and colour Obermann's natural surroundings, as some still forest pool re?ects the ?owers that fringe its margin and the trees that shut it in; blue sky and ?oating cloud are mirrored in it by day, and starry depths of space by night; sometimes an impatient gust ru?ies its surface with chasing ripples as though it were'trying to break away and ?ow like a living stream, a source of energy and fertility, but the impulse passes by, and the pool is there still, as motionless as ever.
