«Drei Männer im Schnee» is a satirical novel by Erich Kästner, published by Aschehoug in paperback (112 pages, in German).
The wealthy Geheimrat Tobler wins a ten-day trip to a grand mountain hotel in his own company's competition. To escape the pomp, he travels as a modest man named Schulze. The initial misunderstanding turns into a comedy of errors about social prejudices, where appearances rule and no one is who they seem.
The novel was originally published in 1934; this 1999 edition is an abridged and simplified version from the Easy Readers series.
Aimed at students of German as a foreign language, as it is an abridged and simplified edition.
