Beschreibung

On a magical Christmas Eve, deep in the forest, the impoverished Count Harro von Thorstein finds the young Princess Rosemarie wandering alone through the forest. She has come from Castle Brauneck fleeing from her golden cage in search of the love she desires and needs. Sensing a lost soul, much as himself, Harro gains the trust of this angelic child. A mystical bond of true love emerges, which holds them captive throughout their further lives. The young woman is granted with celestial strength, experiencing divine love and devotion to her belief. With sacred compassion she overcomes anguish and is lifted up to the hallowed purity of a saint.

Autorenbeschreibung

"A unique book", this is how the 1913 published novel "Die Heilige und ihr Narr" by Agnes Günther (1863-1911) has been described. Her novel "Die Heilige und ihr Narr" was published two years after her death. The novel reached sensational sales figures from the beginning; the number of printed copies in German exceeded the million mark, as was the story filmed three times in 1928, 1935 and 1957. The novel has been translated into eleven other languages, but never into English before. Resuming this tradition, Adelheid Cihlar and Sabine Egeler now present the novel in English – a task that has been long overdue. Agnes Günther has aptly described her beautiful homeland Hohenlohe, Germany with all its benefits.
