Hermann Sudermann
Hermann Sudermann (1857-1928) was a prominent German writer and playwright known for his significant contributions to naturalist literature. His most famous works include the novel "Dame Care" (1887), which brought him widespread recognition, and the play "Honor" (1889), which became a critical success. Sudermann's writing often focused on social issues and the struggles of the lower and middle classes in a rapidly changing society. He was a central figure in German naturalism and realism, influencing literary trends in late 19th and early 20th-century Europe.

Old, and weather-beaten, and roofless, its crumbling walls stretch upwards toward the sky, giving free access to every gust of wind. Two large, round stones that once, maybe,...
