Faust: das Volksbuch (Level 3)

One evening Faust invites friends to dine at his home. In front of their terrified faces he raises his glass in a toast and says, ‘Friends, tonight the devil will come and take me away.’ Here is the mystery of the extraordinary life of a man who made magic, discovered the secrets of alchemy and accomplished incredible feats for exactly 24 years. The fascinating and disturbing figure of Faust has inspired the greatest writers and dramatists of all time, from Christopher Marlowe and Thomas Mann.
