Despite having his future career mapped out for him in the diplomatic service, the young man begins to question all his family values under Sibylle's spell. His family, future, and social standing become irrelevant when set against his overriding compulsion to pick her up every night from the theater so they can go for a drive. Schwarzenbach's clear, psychologically acute prose makes this novella an evocative narrative, with many intriguing parallels to her own life. In fact, she admitted after publication that her hero was in fact a young woman, not a man, leaving little doubt that Lyric Novella is a literary tale of lesbian love during socially and politically turbulent times. 546 $a Translated from the German. 651 0 $a Berlin (Germany) $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Germany $z Berlin. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204829 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Jones, Lucy $c (Translator), $e translator. 700 1 $a Perret, Roger, $e writer of afterword. 830 0 $a Seagull library of German literature. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117021744.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=064997EAC48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
