«The Suffering of Young Werther» — a confession about forbidden love that became a bestseller of its time and resonated deeply in the hearts of readers across Europe. One of the outstanding works of German and European sentimentalism.
The first edition of the novel was published in the fall of 1774 at the Leipzig Book Fair and immediately became a bestseller. The distribution of the novel triggered a wave of imitative suicides in Europe, which was later called the Werther Effect. This effect was so strong that in several countries, authorities banned the distribution of the book.
