Simplicius Simplicissimus

H.J.C. von Grimmelshausen

Simplicius
Simplicissimus - the towering achievement of H.J.C. von Grimmelshausen, one
of the earliest novelists in the German language - charts the adventures of
its hero, Simplicius, through the horrors of battle, murder, fire and famine,
offering an invaluable eyewitness account of the Thirty Years’ War and
showing how humanity can, in the end, triumph over brutality

A work of great poetical beauty and satirical strength, and a lasting
historical document of timeless value, Simplicius Simplicissimus is one of
the greatest picaresque novels in the Western canon.
