About this eBook

Author Döblin, Alfred, 1878-1957
Title Die drei Sprünge des Wang-lun: Chinesischer Roman
Credits Produced by Jens Sadowski
Summary "Die drei Sprünge des Wang-lun: Chinesischer Roman" by Alfred Döblin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book paints a vivid portrait of life in China and focuses on the evolving journey of its main character, Wang-lun, who encounters various people and social dynamics while grappling with personal and societal challenges. It intertwines themes of struggle, identity, and rebellion against oppressive societal norms within a culturally rich backdrop. At the start of the novel, the narrative introduces a world steeped in complexity, mixing imagery of a bustling yet harsh society with philosophical musings on the nature of existence and the ramifications of societal change. We meet various characters, including the gentle yet conflicted Wang-lun, a fisherman's son from a coastal village, and encounter a slew of marginalized individuals—hungry beggars, rebellious youths, and other 'strengths' who embody the turmoil of their society. As tensions rise within the fabric of their community, Wang-lun is drawn into their struggles, setting in motion the conflicts that will define his path as he must confront his desires and the moral dilemmas that arise during his transformative journey.
