4.0 out of 5 stars
A must for anyone with a taste for classic literature and/or all things macabre.,
This review is from: Faust: Part 1 (Penguin Classics) (Pt. 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
I can't stay away from a good Faust tale and this is among my favorites. Goethe's prose and language is exquisite as most popular writers of his time. Not only did the story have a wonderful feel for the fantastic, while telling the story of what a man will sacrifice for love, but there are events ever occurring that keep the reader chuckling or at least engaged. The are certain lines in here that are timeless, realistic commentaries on the perception of love. Read, enjoy, and prepare to have your heart strings plucked.

This review is from: Faust: Part 1 (Penguin Classics) (Pt. 1) (Mass Market Paperback)
Interesting work. Why it took decades to finish...I dunno. The contemporary feel of the translation is welcome.
