Ikionnelliset : Romaani

Granada in Flammen by Ludwig Huna is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set amid German aristocratic households and military maneuvers near the Baltic, it presents a society-and-romance drama centered on the Allmer family, especially the high-spirited Beatrix, her brother Botho, and the enigmatic Baroness Pantin. When Dorothea’s disgraced sister arrives seeking protection for her daughter Konstanze, the commanding Countess Allmer extends shelter, setting the stage for class-bound expectations to clash with private desires and concealed pasts. The opening of the story unfolds during lively field exercises near Lübeck, where officers host Countess Allmer, her daughter Beatrix, and companions at a camp supper. Amid flirtation and talk of impromptu dances, Botho slips away to a clandestine meeting with the alluring Baroness Pantin. That night, back at the Allmer estate, Dorothea’s long-estranged sister appears with her ailing mother’s plea: take in Konstanze while she seeks a cure in the south. The Countess agrees, Beatrix warmly welcomes the new “sister,” and practical arrangements fill the next day, just as the much-discussed Baroness Pantin arrives to call, hinting at coming entanglements.
