The Sorrows of Young Werther

[The Mystical Man]

Goethe's writing is beautiful. 

"The book reputedly also led to some of the first known examples of copycat suicide. The men were often dressed in the same clothing 'as Goethe's description of Werther and using similar pistols.' Often the book was found at the scene of the suicide."

We read that book in school. This was actually one of the few books I enjoyed at least to some degree as a teenager.

We never read Goethe in school. But we read Schiller's "The Robbers" which I enjoyed.
