Publisher's Synopsis
Countess Gisela Neibuhr feels profound dissatisfaction with her country, as a woman -- and so thoroughly disgusted with it as a German that her personal grievances seem far from necessary to fortify her for the momentous role she is soon to play.
Gisela has risen in German society on the strength of her literary talents -- but talents put to what use! . . . for she hopes for nothing less than a revolt from within the deepest heart of German society.
