Master Kierkegaard

More about the book

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Berlin, the narrative follows Magda, a maidservant entangled with philosopher Soren Kierkegaard. Through her journals, she explores profound themes found in the Luther Bible and Goethe's Faust while navigating her complex feelings for Kierkegaard, who is immersed in his existential writings. The story unfolds over several seasons, reflecting Magda's struggles with her identity and societal changes, culminating in a pivotal summer in 1848 that questions her ultimate fate—judgment or salvation.
