Summary |
"Auch ich, auch du: Aufzeichnungen eines Irren" by Hans Siemsen is a literary work likely resembling a novel or narrative exploration, written in the early 20th century. This book delves into themes of madness, existential reflection, and the human condition, as it captures the inner turmoil of the protagonist who grapples with personal guilt, sanity, and the absurdity of life. The narrative unfolds through the fragmented musings of a character who identifies himself as "Tot" (Dead), creating a surreal atmosphere that reflects his struggles with existence and social realities. The protagonist confronts his past actions during war, grappling with feelings of guilt and estrangement from society. He alternates between memories of violence and poetic introspection, revealing a disconnection from those around him, as he expresses despair over humanity’s condition. This ongoing internal conflict is manifested in his desire for connection and understanding, while he simultaneously feels trapped and isolated, ultimately portraying a complex portrait of the psyche under duress.
