| Summary | "The Song of Songs" by Hermann Sudermann is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the tumultuous life of Lilly, a young girl with dreams of artistry, and her chaotic family dynamics stemming from her father's sudden disappearance. The narrative delves into themes of longing, loss, and the struggle for self-identity in a world burdened with expectations and disappointments." "At the start of the novel, Lilly is introduced as a fourteen-year-old girl living with her father, Kilian Czepanek, a music master known for his talent but also for his erratic behavior. After he unexpectedly vanishes, Lilly and her mother are left to navigate the repercussions of his absence. The chapter builds a vivid portrayal of Lilly's affection for her father and her responsibilities to practice piano, despite her reluctance. This setup effectively foreshadows the challenges that Lilly will face as she grapples with the impact of her father's abandonment, setting the stage for her quest for love and artistic fulfillment amidst the turmoil of her family life."
