The sold Countess

By: Viktoria Grantz

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Frederike, the daughter of a not very wealthy count is already squeezed into a corset in her early childhood. She has to learn what a daughter of a “high rank” has to learn and is urged to practise gymnastics daily. Additionally she wears extraordinary dresses. However, she is not allowed to have a mind of her own. Her wishes, her dreams do not count at all. All inconveniences and expenses only serve the purpose to get her advantageously married. Although she is not considered the most beautiful girl, her father finds her a husband. However it is no question of love, because he merely is after the title of nobility. Frederike is locked in and exclusively serves the continuation of the family dynasty. She has to endure many humiliations. However, some day she awakes, abandons all her fears, frees herself and starts a wonderful life.
