Kindle Editionë Der Schimmelreiter eBook ↠ schimmelreiter pdf, Der Schimmelreiter eBookI´ve read the book “Der Schimmelreiter” written by Theodor Storm and plays in North Friesland Storm illustrates the typical life at the North Sea Coast which was in the past a permanent fight against the unpredictability of our nature It´s a fact that the life at the coast gives barely any opportunities for needless things and this is represented in his use of language because It´s written in a simple and facile way For people with big interests in historical literature this book should be a highlight However it´s not easy to read because the reader has to get used to the linguistically expressions from the 18th and 19th century The plot and the development of the story are all in all perfectly

Kindle Editionë Der Schimmelreiter eBook ↠ schimmelreiter pdf, Der Schimmelreiter eBookI can imagine reading these stories in a high school setting and having the teacher strangle all of the life out of them They seem like those kind of stories Luckily I'm not a high school student and I read them on my own and didn't have any of the life taken from them Many of these stories reminded me of Thomas Hardy in that bleak and doomed way that Hardy's novels have
Kindle Editionë Der Schimmelreiter eBook ↠ schimmelreiter pdf, Der Schimmelreiter eBookRead for EurovisionathonCountry GermanySo this was a 99p purchase on Kindle since I needed to find a book either set in Germany or written by a German author The Rider On The White Horse from the blurb promised to be a spooky ghost story with an array of characters including a dikemaster which was an important role in history apparently and an ever changing land When I hear ghosts I really want to be spooked Sadly with this story I didn't feel scared at all The formatting on my edition was terrible All of the text was clumped together and no separate chapters meaning I had no idea at times whose perspective was speaking or some of the events happening The story itself was also very confusing I don't recommend this one

Kindle Editionë Der Schimmelreiter eBook ↠ schimmelreiter pdf, Der Schimmelreiter eBookAgain a ghost story inside a main story exactly like in Die schwarze Spinne but we're in far Northern Germany now right next to the sea Unlike Spinne the Christian allegory in Schimmelreiter is much less on your nose but it's right there Hauke's biggest sin was to insinuate that God may not be almighty when his wife was dying There's a good portion of misanthropy here which wasn't in Spinne everybody except Hauke and his wife is an egotistical foolThe biggest difference is the rich and dense atmosphere and for the atmosphere alone I'd read this book again
