by Franziska Von Reventlow (Author)
Evoking a life rich in turbulences, this early 20th-century novel narrates Ellen Olestjerne's implacable struggle for self-determination. For this young noble woman, freedom is life's primary principle--in love, in motherhood, in sex, at work. Neither boarding school, nor familial discipline, nor her numerous lovers will be able to restrict that fundamental freedom.
Evocando una vida rica en turbulencias, esta novela de comienzos del siglo XX narra la lucha implacable de Ellen Olestjerne por la autodeterminación. Para esta joven noble la libertad es el primer principio de vida--en el amor, en la maternidad, en el sexo, en el trabajo. Ni los internados, ni la disciplina familiar, ni los numerosos amantes han de coartar esa libertad fundamental.Author Biography
Franziska von Reventlow was a German writer, artist, and translator known as the Bohemian Countess of Schwabing in the years leading up to World War I. An unorthodox voice in the early women's movement in Europe, she called for sexual freedom and the abolition of the institution of marriage as the path to social equality for women.
