Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'Master Flea' by E. T. A. Hoffmann is a fantastical narrative that intertwines the mundane with the extraordinary, centering on the life of Peregrine Tyss, a peculiar man living in Frankfort. Peregrine, who is deeply attached to his childhood traditions, celebrates Christmas Eve with the same enthusiasm as when he was a child, despite being in his mid-thirties. His life takes a bizarre turn when he encounters a mysterious and enchanting woman during one of his Christmas Eve visits to a poor bookbinder's family. This woman, who claims to be his 'Alina,' brings with her a sense of the supernatural and a request that leaves Peregrine bewildered. She implores him to release a 'prisoner' he supposedly holds, a request that confounds him as he has no knowledge of such a captive. The narrative then shifts to the story of a flea-tamer in Frankfort, who has trained fleas to perform intricate tricks. This flea-tamer, Anton van Leuwenhock, is revealed to have a connection to the supernatural, as he is believed to be a reincarnation of a historical figure. His life is further complicated by the disappearance of Doertje Elverdink, a woman he had kept under his control. The tale weaves together elements of romance, mystery, and the supernatural, exploring themes of identity, freedom, and the boundaries between reality and illusion.…
