Print on Demand. This book is an intimate epic of love and loss, charting the lives of three women - Varvara, Ursula, and Irma - and the men who adore them. Amidst the backdrop of political and social unrest in 19th century Europe and beyond, their tales intertwine in complex and often heart-wrenching ways. Through wars and revolutions, exile, and imprisonment, the characters grapple with their passions and loyalties, their dreams and disillusionment. In the process, the novel deftly explores the themes of love, freedom, and the search for personal and political identity. With vivid prose and deep historical insights, the author masterfully captures the spirit of an era in flux and explores the timeless human struggles for meaning and connection. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

- Childrens Fiction
A young political exile pursues liberty, ideas, and a redefining view of government across a restless world.
In a sweeping historical mood, the story follows Guido von Estritz, a bright émigré who embraces the ideals of liberty and questions the foundations of power. As he travels from Europe to America, his quest for a “Synthesis of Political Principles” threads through personal loyalties, family ties, and rival visions of democracy. The narrative blends intimate character moments with reflections on liberty, nationalism, and the costs of pursuing high-minded dreams.
- Meet Guido as he negotiates love, ambition, and the lure of political theory.
- Explore his relationships, from a formidable mother figure to peers who challenge his ideas.
- Follow debates about freedom, citizenship, and how nations balance ideals with realpolitik.
- See how personal history and family history intersect with large political questions.
Ideal for readers who enjoy literary fiction with historical settings, character-driven questions of liberty, and thoughtful political debate.

For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
