Sinopsis

Gottfried Keller's 'Seven Legends' merges the charm of folkloric storytelling with profound human insights, presenting a collection that resonates with readers across time. The prose shimmers with Keller's distinctive stylistic elegance, reinterpreting classical legends through a lens that is at once satirical and sympathetic. The author's adeptness at weaving his narrative with an undercurrent of moral and existential contemplation places this work firmly within the Swiss literary tradition, which values craftsmanship and depth. Significantly, 'Seven Legends' is also a testament to the 19th-century European literary panorama, reflecting themes of transformation and the timeless quest for meaning.

Keller, regarded as one of the titans of 19th-century Swiss literature, was deeply influenced by the political and cultural background of his homeland. Living through a period of significant social change, Keller's literature often encapsulates the tensions and harmonies of an evolving society. His work in 'Seven Legends' reflects this interplay, using historical narratives to explore contemporary moral dilemmas, the enduring nature of the human spirit, and the complexities of societal expectations. Keller's artistry stems from a wellspring of personal experience, literary genius, and a profound awareness of nature and humanity.

Ideal for connoisseurs of classic literature and aficionados of folklore alike, 'Seven Legends' offers a rich literary feast. The reader is invited to indulge in Keller's reflective and, at times, whimsical prose. DigiCat Publishing's care in reproducing these tales underscores their belief in the work's continuing significance. Scholars and daydreamers will find themselves at home within these pages, celebrating the manifold ways in which Keller's work continues to inspire, provoke thought, and delight the literary palate.

    - Doubting yourself and your sanity 
    - Mood swings 
    - Sleeplessness 
    - Extreme weight loss or weight gain 
    - Uncharacteristic jealousy/ insecurity

    The list goes on…. 
    Covert Narcissists dangle their vulnerability in front of you as bait, just waiting for your good nurturing mothering/fathering instincts to kick in and rescue the poor little lost child they are presenting to you. 
    But beneath the mask of a shy, vulnerable and “good person” something far more sinister lurks. 
    And this what makes covert narcissism so damaging and dangerous: the nature of the disorder is such that you are brainwashed into thinking you are dealing with a human being with a morality, perhaps even a “pillar of the community”.
