Happy Sunday! What is kunstlerroman and what is a Bildungsroman? A bildungsroman is a coming of age story, whilst a kunstlerroman is a sub genre of bildungsroman and follows a character's development as an artist. 

Harry Potter, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Where the Crawdads sing are all examples of bildungsroman. Whereas, A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, The Unknown Masterpiece, or In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower are all examples of kunstlerroman.  






Happy Reading!
