    Summary

    Goethe buys a house. They say the house is haunted.
    Or: the Novel of a Theory of a Novel
    (or: in this fiction I will poetically demonstrate how Elective Affinities is literally haunted by Schiller)

    So ist denn wohl nicht Entsagung in so manch einem Verhältnis seines Lebens das erste in Goethe gewesen sondern die Versäumnis. Und als er die Unwiederbringlichkeit des Versäumten, die Unwiederbringlichkeit aus Versäumnis erkannte, da erst mag ihm die Entsagung sich ergeben haben und ist nur der letzte Versuch, Verlorenes im Gefühl noch zu umfangen.
    (It was probably not renunciation that was of the first importance to Goethe in so many relations in his life but his having neglected to do things. And when he recognises the irretrievability of what he had thus let slip, the irretrievability of what he had neglected, only then did renunciation offer itself to him, if only as a last attempt to embrace in feeling what was lost.)
    --Walter Benjamin, Goethe’s Elective Affinities
    For the anniversary of the death day of Fritz.

    Summary

    “Of course he hated his body; not only could he not look into his mirror without shame at the feral eyes staring back at him, no, it would betray him, shift and change and twist during every full moon, ripping apart his already shattered sense of self with its claws. But the hunger for flesh, the exhaustion, the natural isolation his condition brought wasn’t enough, no, God had to send a man to Vienna who only made all of those feelings worse.

    And of course Mozart loved himself; he was forever young, always free to look ethereally beautiful and perfect, throw his head back and bare his fangs in that screeching, gratingly recognizable cackle. He could dress himself in finery and not worry about ailments, sleep, food. He could focus on his work, compose and write and play, while Salieri drowned in his self-hatred.”
