About the author

Peter Rosegger was an Austrian poet from the province of Styria. He was a son of a farmer and grew up in the forests and fields. Rosegger went on to become a most productive poet and author as well as an insightful teacher and visionary. In his later years, he was honoured by officials from various Austrian universities and the city of Graz. He was nearly awarded the Nobel Prize in 1913.
Most of his works are set in the rural areas of Styria, which he knew best, and are concerned with the social and political changes of the time. His poetry ranges from romantic to political.

Reviews

[Julia Hörmayer · Rating 2 out of 5]

Wir haben eigentlich nur extrem wenige Geschichten gelesen, weil einige nur so eine mini-Ausgabe hatten. Ich hab eigentlich Band eins und zwei, das Buch ist ziemlich dick, aber keine Intention weiterzulesen. Wie erwartet, war das Buch schrecklich. Mir war klar, dass ich Bücher aus der Epoche des Naturalismus nicht mögen würde, ich verstehe noch immer nicht, wieso wir dieses Buch lesen mussten, es ist nicht so, also hätten wir sonderlich viel dabei gelernt oder als wäre das jetzt unbedingt notwendig gewesen. Aber ok, jetzt weiß ich, mit welchen Büchern ich mich nicht mehr näher befassen werde.
