Jugend ohne Gott is a novel written by Ödön von Horváth in 1937. The story is set in a dystopian society where a group of high school students are preparing for a hiking trip in the mountains. The students are divided into two groups, the "A" group, which consists of the privileged and wealthy students, and the "B" group, which consists of the less fortunate students.
As the students embark on their journey, they are faced with challenges and moral dilemmas that test their values and beliefs. The protagonist, a teacher who accompanies the students on the trip, observes the behavior of the students and is disturbed by their lack of empathy and compassion towards each other.
Throughout the novel, the teacher grapples with the idea of a society without God, where individuals are driven by selfishness and greed. The story explores themes of power, corruption, and the consequences of a society that has lost its moral compass.
Jugend ohne Gott is a thought-provoking novel that raises questions about the nature of humanity and the importance of values and ethics in a world that is increasingly driven by materialism and individualism.
