Using one of the chemistry theories of the time as a metaphor throughout the novel, Goethe juxtaposes social interactions with scientific principles, while illustrating the typically Romantic concern of the individual coming to terms with society.Controversial when first published and still much critically debated today, Goethe’s Elective Affinities is an early model for the modern novel.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBTranslator: H.M.
