The novel is set in Hamburg in the early 1980s. At its center is Andreas Haase, a romantic film director who dreams of making his way as a significant movie director. Haase devotes all of his energies to his movies and hesitates to work at other jobs because of the uncertain financial situation of German filmmaking at that time: many artists were struggling financially, due to a lack of US\xa0$ among European film producers. Then, a chance encounter with an opera singer named Edith Hensen leads to a change in Haas\' life.\nOn a day when Hensen was unhappy with ending up as an afterthought in a performance, she went into the boudoir of her patron, the notoriously greedy industrialist Max Kastenmacher (who was intended by Hensen to make a movie based on her life as a showgirl) in order to convince him of earlier promises of better compensation for her supposedly talented talents; after being denied, Hensen knocked Kastenmaker out, fled through the windows, and sought refuge in the drama club of the Borchardt Theater filled with actresses. After taking shelter there, Haase introduced himself to the opera singer.\nHensen appears out of touch with contemporary norms for women. She has a lingerie shop in Hamburg but resists prostituting herself or taking advantage of men for money. Instead, she narrates her story against significant other characters\' will but is often harshly rebuffed or deprived of attention. Even after lessening the distance between them, they don\'t share sexual relations until the conclusion of the plot and the novel ends abruptly.\nThe novel begins with the unsuccessful marriage of Haase and Hensen, who cannot abstract themselves from their painful relationship. Their relationship is of a socially unconventional nature, independently of their age difference.\nA central, underlying question is whether Haase is able to reconcile his artistic ambitions with his private life and, alternatively, whether he resorts to submission to the standard norms of society and career success becomes his only or even exclusive motivation and goal.\nAn overall tragicomic note is struck with the author\'s fascinating portrayal of individual characters.\nHaase is portrayed as romantic, strait-laced, self-denying, anxious, embittered, and apathetic; Kastenkeeper as greedy and sycophantic, and Colonel Müller, the director of the police department of security in Hamburg, as vain, cunning, and promiscuous.\nAlso indispensable is Nils Zoellners portrayal, x agent of the Stasi special department, a no-nonsense hard-charging man, doing his own thing while romancing the pretty and fortune-greedy Miriam Buber-Kastenluker, the Sheikh\'s daughter whom he would one day marry and take to Paris (she bears a superficial resemblance to Zinaida Serebryakova), where both operated the privy welfare offices for the GDR.\nSinger Piet Uckermann embodies excessiveness, flightiness, irresponsible upbringing, backsliding, free spirit and love for freedom; capitalist businessman Hermann Rübsam emphasizes sneakiness and greed in condominium restructuring, amiable frivolity, pilferage in bureaucracy and a desire for fame.
