More about the book

Set in the 16th century, the story follows Anna, a rebellious woman who defies societal expectations of obedience and modesty. Her flirtatious nature and affairs with a nobleman and a cavalryman lead to her estrangement from her wealthy father, who punishes her harshly. Undeterred, Anna embarks on a relentless 30-year legal battle against her father, siblings, and hometown, seeking financial support and justice. Her struggle highlights themes of female defiance, the quest for autonomy, and the harsh realities of patriarchal society.
