description: The story of a woman made pregnant without her knowledge.Between 1799, when he left the Prussian Army, and his suicide in 1811, Kleist developed into a writer of unprecedented and tragically isolated genius. His stories are those of a man swimming against the tide of German Enlightenment, unable to believe in the idealistic humanism of his day, and who sees human nature as irrational, ambiguous, and baffling.
