Sneak Peak
"Love is not a thing you can pick up and throw into the gutter and pick up again as the fancy takes you. I am a person, very unfortunately for you, with a quite peculiar dread of thrusting myself or my affections on any one, of in any way outstaying my welcome. The man I would love would be the man I could trust to love me for ever. I do not trust you. I did outstay my welcome once. I did get thrown into the gutter, and came near drowning in that sordid place."
― Elizabeth von Arnim, Fraulein Schmidt and Mr. Anstruther

Synopsis
Rose-Marie Schmidt and Roger Anstruther's love affair is the subject of this charming book. In the small German town of Jena, where she resides with her father, the Professor, Rose-Marie, a determined young woman of twenty-five, is regarded as a spinster. Rose-Marie and Roger fall in love as Roger, an underprivileged but well-born young Englishman, visits their homes.
