Feierabende: Lustige und finstere Geschichten

by Peter Rosegger

DE·~12 hours

Chapters

Description

A warm collection of short tales gathers around the simple pleasure of the evening after a day’s labor. The author paints lively summer gatherings, mischievous village folk, and unexpected jokes that spring from everyday chores, letting listeners taste the gentle humor that makes a weary day feel brighter. Each vignette is rooted in rustic Alpine life, where the cadence of work and the sigh of twilight create a comforting backdrop for the light‑hearted escapades.

The second half shifts tone, inviting a cooler, more mysterious atmosphere as winter evenings settle in. Here the stories turn subtly unsettling, exploring hidden fears, quiet superstitions, and the shadows that lengthen when the day ends. Though the moods differ, both sections share a keen eye for human quirks, making the listening experience feel like a series of campfires—some crackling with laughter, others flickering with a whisper of intrigue.
