Hinzelmeier
Die Geschichte von "Hinzelmeier" ist eine Fabel, ein eindrucksvolles Gleichnis. Sie handelt vom "jungen Hinzelmeier", der die Chance bekommt, sein Glück zu finden. Durch allzu große Gier und Verblendung und mit "Hilfe" eines Raben, der diese Gier und Verblendung verkörpert, gelingt es ihm aber immer wieder, seinem Glück zu "entwischen", das zum Greifen nahe vor ihm liegt. Stattdessen begegnet er dem Teufel und wird kurzzeitig sogar zu dessen Werkzeug.
Storms Fabel ist zeitlos und heute um so aktueller. Sie löst eine Diskussion um Werte und um die Frage aus, wie Glück individuell definiert wird und ob es in materialistischen Werten gefunden werden kann.
Eine zeitlos-moderne Fabel über Liebe, Sehnsucht nach ewiger Jugend und Blindheit fürs eigene Glück.
