About the book: 2004 / Julius Hertz, seventy-three years old, lives secluded and lonely in a small London apartment, filling the daytime hours with reading newspapers and walking around the city. All his life he tried to think first of all about others, and now, left alone, he feels that he has become an “exile from real life.” Maybe love will help him start over? But they had not seen the beautiful Fanny for thirty years...
