About the author
Hans Jakob Christoph von Grimmelshausen
1625–1676
Best known for the earthy, adventurous novel Simplicius Simplicissimus, this 17th-century German writer turned the chaos of the Thirty Years’ War into one of the great classics of early modern fiction. His work mixes satire, hardship, and dark humor in a way that still feels vivid today.
