Findelkind
Produced by An Anonymous Volunteer, and David Widger
"Findelkind" by Louise de la Ramee, also known as Ouida, is a poignant novel likely written during the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of the majestic Tyrolean mountains, the narrative centers around a little boy named Findelkind, who is characterized by his dreamy disposition and profound sense of compassion. The book explores themes of innocence, faith, and the pursuit of nobility in a world that often seems indifferent to the struggles of the vulnerable. The story follows Findelkind, a nine-year-old boy, who, burdened by the legacy of his namesake from centuries past, embarks on a quest to emulate the charitable deeds of the original Findelkind. Despite his small stature and naive dreams, he strives to help the poor and build a monastery, believing he has a divine calling. However, as he sets out on his journey, he faces a harsh and unwelcoming world, where his good intentions often lead to ridicule and adversity. The narrative reaches a tragic climax when his actions unintentionally result in the loss of two beloved lambs, leading to a deep emotional turmoil within him. Ultimately, "Findelkind" is a touching exploration of childhood innocence, the complexity of intentions, and the painful lessons learned through experience.
