| Summary | "Der rote Komet" by Robert Heymann is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the year 2439 and revolves around Romulus Futurus, a renowned astronomer, and his friend John Crofton, as they uncover the mystery of a newly discovered comet that is influencing humanity in unexpected and chaotic ways. The book explores themes of passion, betrayal, and societal upheaval, particularly as characters grapple with the effects of this celestial phenomenon on their lives and relationships. The beginning of the novel introduces us to Romulus Futurus and John Crofton in a star observatory, where they discuss the ominous arrival of the red comet, which has enveloped the Earth in a peculiar crimson glow. As the comet approaches, it triggers a wave of mass hysteria and wild behavior across the globe, leading to increased violence and illicit activities. The narrative quickly shifts to the tension within Romulus's personal life, revealing strains in his marriage to Fabia, and a concerning love triangle develops with Crofton. This opening sets the tone for an intricate interplay between the astronomical and the personal, as characters' desires and ambitions come to the fore against the backdrop of impending cosmic chaos.
