Genç Werther'in Acıları

There are countless ways that connect people to life. Love is one of these ways, perhaps the most beautiful. But love is as dangerous as it is beautiful! It is beyond logic and reason because: It is an explosion that takes place inside, deep down, a desire to transcend and destroy oneself, to unite with the loved one, to melt, or even to disappear. Every love revolves around the desire to reunite. When it becomes impossible to achieve it, it risks exploding. Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther is a perfect love narrative that deals with the shocks caused by not being able to reunite. Almost all states of a person in love are depicted with clear language and a deep-rooted look, even "doubt":

No, I'm not deceiving myself! I read your dark eyes' interest in me, and my destiny. Yes, I feel; Because I believe in my feelings, I wonder if I can say it out loud? The love that elevates doubt to the level of truth and shatters belief when it cannot be said out loud... Werther's young love... Passionate love that only remains on its own soil, but cannot take root, cannot expand, and for this very reason turns its face from life to death...
