About this book
In a pivotal moment of social commentary, "Kleider machen Leute" by Gottfried Keller explores the intricate relationship between appearance and identity in a rapidly changing society. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Switzerland, this novella delves into themes of deception and societal expectations through the lens of its protagonist, who finds himself ensnared in a web of mistaken identity. With poignant reflections on class distinctions and the superficiality of social status, Keller's work invites readers to question the true essence of individuality. Ideal for students, literary enthusiasts, and civic activists, this compelling narrative challenges perceptions and ignites discussions on authenticity and self-representation.
