Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This historical fiction is set in 16th-century Germany and centers around Nuremberg patrician Lienhard Groland, a respected member of the Council. During a wedding procession, Lienhard intercedes with his fellow magistrates for Kuni, a young ropedancer accused of theft. His intervention sets in motion a series of events that will impact both of their lives years later. Fast forward six years, and the author places the reader in a bustling inn, The Blue Pike, as an array of travelers from all walks of life converge, including Lienhard Groland and his party. An unexpected encounter between Lienhard and Kuni unfolds, who is now a crippled street performer, and the story explores the ways in which their lives have diverged in the years since their fateful first meeting. The narrative delves into the social and cultural landscape of the era, shedding light on the stark contrasts between the lives of the privileged and the poor, and highlighting the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Ultimately, this book invites readers to reflect on the complexities of human nature, the power of compassion, and the enduring impact of our choices.
