Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Wedlock" is a compelling psychological novel by the acclaimed author Jacob Wassermann. The narrative centers on Friedrich Laudin, a highly respected divorce lawyer who has spent his career navigating the wreckage of other people's marriages. Despite his professional expertise and his own seemingly stable family life, Laudin finds himself increasingly disillusioned by the cynicism of his trade. The story takes a dramatic turn when his own domestic world begins to unravel, forcing him to confront the same emotional complexities and legal entanglements he has witnessed in his clients. Wassermann masterfully explores the intricacies of human relationships, the institution of marriage, and the psychological toll of professional detachment. "Wedlock" serves as a profound meditation on the fragility of social contracts and the depths of the human psyche. Through Laudin's journey, readers are presented with a vivid portrait of early 20th-century societal norms and the timeless struggles of love, fidelity, and identity.
