| Summary | "Die Hexe von Norderoog" by Anton von Perfall is a novella written in the early 20th century. The story is set in a coastal community and explores themes of love, isolation, and societal prejudice, centering around the character of Nizam, the daughter of a sailor who brings her to his native land from India. As she integrates into the community, her presence stirs tension and fascination, revealing the deep-rooted attitudes of the inhabitants towards outsiders. At the start of the novella, the reader is introduced to the picturesque but harsh landscape of Halligen, where the whimsical yet oppressive forces of nature mirror the struggles of its inhabitants. The brothers Knut and Lars Götrek navigate their roles within this familial and social structure, with Lars' attention becoming fixated on the arrival of Nizam, who, along with her father, disrupts the status quo of their insular lives. In a mix of naïve charm and tension, Lars's innocent admiration for Nizam evokes the disapproval of his brother, revealing a family dynamic increasingly strained by the influences of otherness, love, and societal expectations.
