Ja damals... / Tipsys sonderliche Liebesgeschichte

Three stories from a sunken time - three portraits of women from old Estonia. "Tipsy was not a canary. She was also not a young spaniel with long ears that could feel like silk when brushed. She was neither a foal nor a kitten. She was a young girl growing up on an Estonian estate just before the turn of the century." It not only begins this way, but it also reads like a fairy tale, what this Maria-Gabriele von Ilgafer, affectionately called Tipsy, experiences. She is only seventeen when an embarrassing mishap occurs at a friend's wedding, setting off her peculiar love story.
