Book excerpt: "Into the shadow of Heidelberg Castle stumbles the youthful Morgan, an American rolling stone determined to become a famous artist in Germany's turbulent seventies. One spring morning he encounters the gifted but troubled artist Renate selling her paintings along the river-walk. Morgan is at once humbled by her talent, that far exceeds his own, and his desire for her is crippled by self-doubt. He can ill afford his lethargy. In a stunning move that sucks the life from the streets, city hall demands all artists, mimes and street musicians must officially register. Before the dance of the bohemians becomes a march, and the seductive melody of guitar and mandolin become overwhelmed by the resurgent blare of the bugle and the punch of the drum, Morgan must find the man within him, claim his woman and a surprising birthright."--P. [4] of cover.
