Description
Effi Briest by Theodor Fontane, first published in 1892, tells the story of young Effi, forced into marriage with a stern and ambitious man twice her age, who has little time for her. Isolated and bored, Effi engages in a brief affair with the married Captain Crampas, a man of dangerous reputation. Years later, when she has nearly forgotten this secret, it resurfaces with serious consequences. Fontane’s concise and ironic prose depicts a world where gender and the desire for personal happiness are constrained by social expectations and rigid conventions. Effi Briest remains one of Fontane’s most compelling works, blending social critique with emotional depth.
