Faust
About the book
What would you trade for ultimate knowledge, power—and love?
In Faust, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe delivers a towering drama that spans Heaven, Earth, and Hell. At its center is Heinrich Faust, a brilliant scholar disillusioned with life's emptiness, who makes a fateful pact with the devilish Mephistopheles in exchange for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures.
What begins as a quest for meaning evolves into a sweeping tale of moral conflict, romantic tragedy, and spiritual reckoning. From seduction and ruin to divine intervention, Faust's journey mirrors the eternal human desire for truth, fulfillment, and transcendence.
