Although in this translation the translator states that he edited it for contemporary pacing. I throughly enjoyed the stories but wondered what I was missing of the original unaltered text. That sense of loss and curiosity lost a star for me. But had he said nothing I never would have know. I feel I should reward his honesty and return 1/2 a star but alas there is no such option. An excellent read no matter what and a writer who; like Von Kleist; sometimes slips through the cracks.13 of 14 people found the following review helpful. Its Worth a Second ReadBy FlippyE.T.A. Hoffmann was in his own way a singular artist of the early nineteenth century. He was a musician; he painted set designs for plays; he wrote novels; stories and novellas. He also had an influence on the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Fyodor Dostoevsky.I read this collection years ago. I bought it recently because I wanted to read the tales once again; enjoy them and learn from them. Hoffmann is one of the masters of his times and its a pleasure to reread his works. He is great with atmosphere; his tales are compelling and they linger in the imagination. I love the German novella format he incorporates - longer than a story; shorter than a novel but with the richness of both worlds.If you love German literature; this and Kleists collection of stories are great reads.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
