«Las afinidades electivas» is the novel by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (344 pages, in Spanish).
Eduard and Charlotte live a peaceful existence until the arrival of Ottilie, Charlotte's protégée, and the captain, Eduard's friend, disrupts their harmony. Goethe draws on the chemical concept of elective affinities to explore fidelity, desire, and the clash between passions and the established social order.
The work was originally published in 1809 under the title «Die Wahlverwandtschaften». The Spanish translation of this edition is by José María Valverde.
For readers of classic European literature and nineteenth-century novels, interested in love, marriage, and human nature.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a German polymath who is widely regarded as the most influential writer in the German language. His work has had a wide-ranging influence on literary, political, Christian views, and philosophical thought in the Western world from the late 18th century to the present. A poet, playwright, novelist, scientist, statesman, theatre-director, and critic, Goethe wrote a wide range of works, including plays, poetry and aesthetic criticism, as well as treatises on botany, anatomy, and colour.
