This is an automatically translated description

Who is Leni Pfeiffer? From the very first sentence, you will know her age, height, eye and hair colour. But these are only external signs. To really get to know Leni, you need more time, more words. While painting her portrait, the author conducts a kind of journalistic investigation: he talks to Leni's friends and colleagues, her neighbours and enemies. Each of them adds new touches to the image of this woman. This is how the novel is created - an epic canvas. After all, Leni's story is not just a biography of one person, but a biography of an entire nation, country, and era. You will see pre-war Germany, Germany during the Second World War, and post-war Germany. This is a novel about the generations that went through the most difficult years of the twentieth century, about people living in a difficult time, in a strange and wonderful time.
