Peter Schlemihl: Newly translated and Annotated
Adelbert von Chamisso
Unsuccessful in his ambitions, Peter Schlemihl seals a pact with the Devil in which he exchanges his shadow for the purse of Fortunatus, thereby gaining everlasting riches. But when he is ridiculed, persecuted and hated for being different from other men, he realizes that poverty is easier to bear than the loss of his peace of mind.
