Goethe's "Faust" in plain language! The tragedy about the search for knowledge is told in an accessible way for everyone with an easy-to-read translation. The playful use of the accessible language form creates a direct access to the well-known classic: the wager between good and evil, the intellectual's suffering from the question of meaning and the controversial relationship with the young Margarete. But Goethe's verses can also be heard again and again. Faust is a play. The play is by Goethe. Many people know the play. The play is about Faust. Faust is a man.
