The dream of a self-determined life: when wishing didn't help. Monschau, the end of the 19th century: In the cloth-making town, the paths of Wilhelm, Jacob, and Luise intersect, united since childhood by a common desire to escape the strict norms and rules of their time. Luise wants to become a doctor, Jacob dreams of a free life far from his father's factory, and the farmer's son Wilhelm seeks to flee the constraints and poverty of his hometown Wollseifen. At first, everything seems possible, but as the century draws to a close, there is little room for individual life plans, especially when love is involved. Suddenly, the friendship of the three is at risk, and not only does Wilhelm's path take a completely different direction than he wished. Anna-Maria Caspari sensitively describes in her second Eifel novel the life journeys of three people trying to escape the constraints of the founding era.
