Good writing and story lines. Gets the readers attention quickly and manages to draw them into deep and complex issues. (

A couple moves to the country to do good works and pursue noble aims. They find themselves falling into debasement and lethargy. A German rationalist insults the man, leading to a life-changing duel.
