Langs een omweg

by A. L. G. Bosboom-Toussaint

Regina van Berchem, a wealthy young woman, moves to the city after the death of her father. She becomes disillusioned with the shallowness and greed of the people around her. When she meets Eckbert Witgensteyn, an old friend from her youth, she is drawn to him but also wary of his intentions. After a series of misunderstandings and betrayals, Regina and Eckbert must confront their feelings for each other and decide if their love is strong enough to overcome the obstacles that stand in their way.
