| Summary |
"Junge Triebe: Roman" by Ernst W. Freißler is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the tumultuous dynamics within a family, particularly focusing on the experiences of the youngest child, Fritzl, as he navigates a strict upbringing under the watchful eye of his authoritarian father. The narrative captures themes of childhood innocence, familial tension, and the quest for affection amongst siblings amidst a backdrop of oppressive parental expectations. The opening of the novel introduces the family as they sit around the dining table, revealing their strained relationships, especially the oppressive demeanor of the father and the anxious demeanor of the mother. The two older brothers display contrasting personalities; while the sadder, more obedient eldest exhibits a deep fear of their father, the younger sibling finds amusement in his interactions. The youngest child, Fritzl, is characterized by his innocence and poignant struggles against the harsh reality of his upbringing, leading to feelings of loneliness and yearning for affection. This tense and vivid depiction sets the stage for the exploration of Fritzl's emotional landscape as he grapples with the complexities of his family life.
