Geheimnis der alten Mamsell

Geheimnis der alten Mamsell

by Eugenie Marlitt

In 'Geheimnis der alten Mamsell,' a young orphan named Felicitas, known as 'Fee,' is taken in by the wealthy Hellwig family, but faces prejudice and mistreatment from the cold and judgmental Frau Hellwig. Denied education and affection, Fee finds solace and understanding only in the enigmatic old Mamsell who resides in the attic. As the story unfolds, the secret surrounding the kind-hearted Mamsell is revealed, while love unexpectedly blossoms in the midst of hardship. Eugenie Marlitt's novel is a poignant portrayal of social inequality and hypocrisy, highlighting the power of love, resilience, and the search for one's true identity in a world filled with prejudice.
