Immensee / Pole Poppenspäler
Zwei Novellen über jäh endendes Kinderglü Immensee erzählt die Geschichte einer unerfüllten Liebe, die den abgewiesenen Verehrer noch Jahrzehnte später in der Erinnerung so bewegt wie schmerzt. Pole Poppenspäler führt in die Welt des fahrenden Volks der Puppenspieler, die den jungen Helden ganz in seinen Bann zieht. Theodor Storm, ein Meister des poetischen Realismus, wusste die starken Gefühle einfacher Menschen in große Literatur zu fassen..
