Maria Janitschek - Mimikry (Mimicry)

The novel Mimikry by Maria Janitschek (1859-1927) was published in 1903. "A piece of modern life", "a flaming protest against 'adaptability', that serious main feature of modern humanity, against the abandonment of its idiosyncrasy and its own character in the levelling gear of life. [...] Maria Janitschek borrowed Sueton's stylus to describe the people of her time [...]." (publisher's announcement)
