Unsuccessful in his ambitions, the young and naive Peter Schlemihl seals a pact with the Devil in which he exchanges his shadow for the purse of Fortunatus, thereby gaining everlasting riches. But when he is ridiculed, persecuted and hated for being different from other men, he realizes that poverty is easier to bear than the loss of his peace of mind. Originally written as a cautionary tale for the children of Chamisso's patron, "Peter Schlemihl" was hailed by contemporaries as a masterpiece with a wide adult appeal, and continues to capture imaginations today.

Zustand: Como nuevo. : Peter Schlemihl es un joven ingenuo que, impulsado por sus ambiciones, hace un pacto con el diablo. A cambio de su sombra, recibe la bolsa de Fortunatus, que le otorga riquezas ilimitadas. Sin embargo, pronto se da cuenta de que la pérdida de su sombra lo convierte en objeto de ridículo y odio, llevándolo a comprender que la pobreza es más llevadera que la pérdida de la paz mental. Originalmente concebido como una advertencia para los hijos del mecenas de Chamisso, este relato se ha convertido en una obra maestra apreciada tanto por jóvenes como por adultos.
