How many musicians (besides Keith Richards) read 18th Century lit) It's actually a fun read. Read most of Goethe's prose, I can highly recommend this- it's a coming of age - a 1700s version of Hemingway's "A 
Movable Feast" Someday I will read Faust, but this is the last of Goethe's prose for me. It's modern in the sense that it's leaving those Renaissance pastorals way behind. What Don Quixote and Robinson Crusoe did to the romance novel, this did the same. Imagine yourself a boho in a wig and nickers.
