A woman thirsting for independence, overwhelmed by the present she struggled to believe in: through the hard test of exile, Else must discover a new reality and a new life based on more than parties, travels, and love. This story submerges the reader in all the richness of an extraordinary lifestyle and brings to life the era of classical music concerts and Stefan Zweig novels, cabarets and modernist paintings, and Nazism and its terrible laws and prohibitions.
