So eine Liebe ("Such a Love"), is a two-part drama by Czech and Austrian playwright Pavel Kohout (1928-).
The text
Best known by its German title, it was originally written in Czech as Taková láska and tells the story of a young university student named Lida. On the eve of her wedding, she runs into her childhood sweetheart, Peter, and calls off the wedding. Peter is married to a female doctor, but he believes he has fallen in love with Lida again. However, society and people around the couple exert such heavy moral pressure on Lida that she, feeling cornered and desperate, pulls away from Peter, flees, and falls from a moving train.
Written in the late 1950s, the German translation was done by Lucie Taubová and it became widely performed on European stages, particularly in German-speaking theaters during the 1950s and 1960s
The play was also adapted into a television movie in 1968, directed by Jiří Bělka [1]
